Synopsis

Bill recounts the adventures that supposedly William Shakespeare lived for a number of years that are not documented in any chronicle. The playwright, by all accounts, abandoned his family for an indefinite number of years to "pursue their dreams." The film is directed (his second film work) by Richard Bracewell, almost ten years after its debut. Damian Lewis, actor who plays the protagonist of the acclaimed series 'Homeland', will be Sir Richard Hawkins, while Mathew Baynton who will give life to the English writer. 'Bill', as says the brief title, is told in a comic tone.
