Plot – Summer of 1593. Will Shakespeare, a young rising playwriter in London, suddenly finds himself in the middle of a creative block and can't go on writing. The Elizabethan age is at the peak and London is one of the most vibrant cultural center of Europe, but Will cannot find any inspiration. However he tries hard, despite the pressures of the financiers and the theater owners, but he cannot find the necessary enthusiasm to write any line of his long-awaited work, 'Romeo and Ethel, the Pirate's Daughter'. He needs a muse and finally he finds her when Will falls in love with a woman, but they will live a dramatic love.
