Hamnet

Stratford-upon-Avon, England, 1582. William Shakespeare, a struggling Latin teacher, and Agnes Hathaway, a farmer's daughter, have a whirlwind romance that leads to an unplanned pregnancy and marriage. Now a father of three, William moves to London to pursue a career as a playwright, often leaving Agnes to raise their family alone. Yet a grim premonition of impending tragedy looms over him. As he prepares to put on his latest play at The Globe, the bubonic plague strikes. With profound grief challenging both his creativity and sanity, William channels his experience into The Tragedy of Hamlet: an existential opus of philosophical and psychological complexity that explores morality, the human psyche, and the consequences of destructive inaction.
