A dark, paranoid modern retelling of Wilde's moral fable that trades philosophical clarity for atmospheric ambiguity, centering on the corrupting allure of beauty and the sinister undertones of mentorship.

A modern day retelling of Oscar Wilde’s cautionary tale, it follows actress Dorian as she travels to Matera to be tutored by reclusive screen icon Lady Amelia Wotton for her upcoming Broadway debut as Lady Macbeth. When Wotton asks her granddaughter Evie to photograph Dorian, the girls grow close but is their relationship as innocent as it appears to be, or is there a more sinister curse at work?
