A biopic of noted painter Francis Bacon, this film focuses on the artist's unlikely and tumultuous relationship with erstwhile thief George Dyer, who became Bacon's lover after a botched break-in. After the unique beginning to their love affair, the well-connected and volatile artist assimilates Dyer into his circle of eccentric and often cold friends, including the caustic Muriel Belcher, as Dyer's struggle with addiction strains their bond.
