Boogie Woogie is a satirical comedy film that revolves around the insatiable appetites and moral ambiguities of various characters within the international art scene in contemporary London. The story follows a group of art dealers, collectors, artists, and aspiring individuals who relentlessly compete with each other in pursuit of success and recognition.

At the center of the plot is the highly sought-after painting "Boogie Woogie." This valuable artwork becomes the focal point of desire for multiple characters, symbolizing their ambitions and the thin line between achievement and downfall. The painting influences the actions and motivations of the characters as they navigate the cutthroat art world.

Art dealer Art Spindle (played by Danny Huston) is determined to sell the painting for a high price, while also contending with the advances of his possessive wife, Jean (played by Heather Graham). They both interact with other individuals in the art scene, including Jean's ambitious lover, Robert (played by Jack Huston), and another art dealer named Bob Maclestone (played by Stellan Skarsgård).

Other characters include Paige (played by Amanda Seyfried), an aspiring artist who becomes entangled in the lives of the main characters; Beth Freemantle (played by Gillian Anderson), a successful art collector with a voracious appetite for power and control; and Dewey (played by Alan Cumming), an art gallery owner who often finds himself caught up in the chaos surrounding the "Boogie Woogie" painting.

As the characters' desires intensify, their actions become increasingly manipulative and deceitful. The film offers a scathing critique of the shallowness and moral bankruptcy that can come with the pursuit of fame and fortune in the art world. With its witty dialogue and sharp observations, Boogie Woogie provides an entertaining and cynical look into the lives of its eccentric and self-serving characters.
