Oscar Wilde - Dandy, Schriftsteller, Star der Londoner Society und gefeierter Bühnenautor des Fin de siècle - nimmt mit Dorian Gray auf geradezu tragische Weise Stationen seines eigenen Lebens vorweg. Der schöne junge Dorian bezaubert den Maler Basil Hallward und erliegt seinerseits dem Einfluss des geistreichen und zynischen Adeligen, Lord Henry. Als Basil ein Porträt von Dorian anfertigt, wünscht er sich selbstverliebt, dass nicht er, sondern das Porträt altern soll. Sein Wunsch wird erfüllt. Dorian führt ein zügelloses Leben, stürzt Menschen in Abgründe und lebt selber alterslos und unbeschadet weiter - zumindest eine Zeit lang.
