Storyline
Acclaimed writer Truman Capote surrounds himself with a circle of women from high society—wealthy and glamorous socialites who defined a bygone era of New York’s high society, affectionately dubbed ‘The Swans.’ Enchanted and captivated by these personalities, Capote immersed himself in their lives, formed friendships, and became their confidant, only to ultimately betray them by writing thinly veiled accounts of their lives, exposing their most intimate secrets.
