Synopsis:

EFFIE GRAY explores the scandalous true story of the troubled relationship between Victorian art critic John Ruskin and Effie Gray, his teenage bride. After marrying at 19, Effie quickly realises her marriage is a lie when Ruskin refuses to consummate it. Yearning for affection, she falls for the artist John Everett Millais. Desperate to be freed from John, Effie embarks on a life-changing journey to become one of the first women in history to seek a divorce from her husband, making her an everlasting figure in feminist history.

Based on the real-life scandal that shocked Victorian-era England, the film tells the story of Euphemia "Effie" Gray. At 19, she married the prominent art historian and critic John Ruskin, but Ruskin refused to consummate their marriage. Lonely and frustrated Effie is drawn to pre-Raphaelite painter John Everett Millais, and finds a friend and champion in Lady Elizabeth Eastlake. After five years trapped in a loveless marriage, Effie will defy the rules of Victorian society...

A look at the mysterious relationship between Victorian art critic John Ruskin and his teenage bride Effie Gray.
