The true story behind the dramatic film Iris. Dynamic and prolific English writer Iris Murdoch produced 26 novels that were years ahead of their time in their exploration of love and their open expression of sexual desires and affairs. Her own personal life was colorful and just as bold and sensual-until Alzheimer's disease stole her talent and her memories. In-depth interviews with a number of key people in her life give insight into this incredible woman, who was made a Dame of the British Empire for her literary contributions. Actors Judi Dench and Jim Broadbent, who were nominated for Academy Awards for their portrayals of Murdoch and her husband, John Bayley, in Iris, are interviewed along with Bayley himself.
