At the close of the 19th century, a time when England was steeped in hypocrisy and struggled with conflicting rules of public and private behaviour, the story traces an uncommon romance that tests the limits of society. The meeting of Christopher Park and John Prince at the theater sparks a tenuous connection which seemingly wavers between love and disdain. Is their relationship straining under the weight of the unforgiving rules of Victorian England or is it merely a place of refuge, sheltering each man from his position in society.
When fate intervenes in a cruel an unexpected manner, it appears that John is tragically resigned to never knowing the true nature of their relationship, and the very meaning of human understanding and compassion.
A series of mystical occurrences puts John Prince’s beliefs to test, igniting a sense of purpose and longing to know. In the company of those who truly care he transcends the bleak existence of his past life and reaches out to find new meaning.
Will a sense of unfathomable loss and desperation yield to a new comprehension of life and the interactions of fellow humans? As John Prince is spurred by the mystical occurrences characteristic of the times to believe in a better life, he will nonetheless learn truth through a technical marvel.
