Based on the play by William Shakespeare, this modern-day adaptation follows the story of Cymbeline (Ed Harris), the reigning king of the Briton Motorcycle gang who has developed an understanding with local Roman police that allows them to conduct their illegal affairs without prosecution. As Cymbeline prepares to marry off his daughter Imogen (Dakota Johnson) to the Queen (Milla Jovovich)'s son Cloten (Anton Yelchin), Cymbeline is outraged to learn that Imogen has secretly wed the penniless Posthumus (Penn Badgley) with whom she has fallen in love. As Cymbeline forces Posthumus into exile, a war erupts between the Britons and the Romans, leaving Imogen torn between two very different worlds. (Transmission Films)
