The movie follows the rise of Egon Schiele as an artist in Vienna at a time when the city is a hotbed of artistic and cultural experimentation. As Schiele navigates the art world and his relationships with women, he also struggles with society's disapproval of his provocative and sexually charged paintings.

Schiele's intense and unapologetic artwork often features nude or partially clothed women in raw and emotional poses, causing outrage and scandal among the conservative Viennese society. Despite the backlash, Schiele remains determined to push the boundaries of art and express his inner turmoil through his work.

His relationship with his sister Gerti is complex and deeply influential, as she becomes both his model and muse. However, it is his relationship with Wally, a young woman with whom he falls deeply in love, that has the most profound impact on his life and art. Their passionate but tumultuous romance is central to the film, as Wally becomes the subject of some of Schiele's most famous and enduring paintings.

As Schiele's career gains momentum, he faces opposition and criticism from the establishment, but also finds support and admiration from fellow artists such as Gustav Klimt. He is also met with resistance from art agents and dealers who see his potential but struggle to navigate the controversy surrounding his work.

Throughout the movie, Schiele is portrayed as a tortured artist who is willing to sacrifice everything, including love and personal happiness, for the sake of his art. The film explores the internal and external conflicts that shaped Schiele's life and art, capturing the essence of an era on the brink of momentous change.
