Elizabeth (Natalie Portman) is a famous actress who wants to meet Gracie (Julianne Moore), whose role she will be playing on the big screen. Two decades earlier, Gracie had caused a scandal in the press due to her relationship with Joe (Charles Melton), 23 years her junior. The encounter results in a painful return to the past for the former star, who is trying to move on, faced with a dangerous quest for the truth by a Hollywood star at the peak of her career. Between the two, Charles Melton's male character subtly weaves threads linking the two actresses and eras. The fourth collaboration between director Todd Haynes and actress Julianne Moore, May December explores the difficulty associated with the human capacity to understand ourselves and others.
