Plot

In an exploration of the final twenty-five years of the legendary yet unconventional British artist J.M.W. Turner (1775-1851), Mr. Turner delves into the tumultuous inner world of this enigmatic figure. Bereaved by the loss of his father, a profound influence that leaves an indelible mark on him, he leads a complex personal life. He engages in a casual yet exploitative affair with a devoted housekeeper and forms a deeply intimate bond with a coastal innkeeper, all while maintaining a veil of secrecy in Chelsea until his last breath. His life is a vibrant tapestry of experiences: he journeys across landscapes, immerses himself in his art, mingles with the rural aristocrats and frequents brothels. He is an enigmatic presence in the Royal Academy of Arts - loved and loathed in equal measure - his rebellious spirit brings a unique color to the establishment. His dedication to his craft is such, he even has himself tied to a ship's mast in the midst of a snowstorm, all to capture the essence of nature's fury on canvas. Mr. Turner is a man whose life is as turbulent and passionate as his artwork, a man who garners admiration and scorn from both the public and the monarchy. This film is a journey into the heart of his genius, a testament to the life and times of a true master.
