All is True
Dodges the pitfalls of luvviedom and period camp to produce a fiercely intelligent and poignant drama about family, grief and the tyranny of genius.
-- Kevin Maher, Times (UK)
All is True
The year is 1613 and Shakespeare is acknowledged as the greatest writer of the age but disaster strikes when his renowned Globe Theatre burns to the ground. Devastated, Shakespeare returns to Stratford, where he must face a troubled past and a neglected family.
Haunted by the death of his only son Hamnet, he struggles to mend the broken relationships with his wife and daughters. In so doing, he is forced to ruthlessly examine his own failings as husband and father. His very personal search for the truth uncovers secrets and lies within a family at war.
