Dorian Gray, an extraordinarily beautiful youth, looks at his newly-painted portrait and despairs at the thought of how time will alter his looks.

If only he could be beautiful forever - yes, he would give his soul for that! Under the influence of the decadent Lord Henry Wotton, Dorian begins to lead a life of hedonistic depravity.

Strangely, none of his excesses touch his face or figure.

But the painting tells a different story. A fascinating study of the corruption of a soul.
