Welcome to the Explanation pro. Today I'm going to explain the a Horror Fantasy movie,
Title Byzantium. Spoiler ahead, watch out and take care.
The movie starts and we see a girl named Elanor. She is not happy with her life as she is a
vampires and she is nearly 200years old. She writes about her life on papers because she
can't tell anyone about this secret. She only knows what she has faced in her life and what
does it mean to be a vampire. We see one day she is writing something like
that but after writing she is throwing the papers away. One of those crumbled paper ball
falls out of the window. An old man named Robert picks it up and reads it. He comes
to know that Elanor is a vampire. He comes to her and seeks a favour. He is not happy
with life, he thinks he should not live any longer, so he requests her to kill her. Elanor
sucks his blood and kills him. Here we see that vampires drinks blood to stay alive and
young. They are immortals but they need blood at some particular time.
In the next scene we see Elanor's mother Clara. She is in a bar and she is also a vampire.
To earn some money she works as a bar dancer. Now while she was in the bar, she sees a man
named Warner. She gets afraid after seeing him as if he will harm her. She starts running
from him but keeps on following her. Eventually he get hold of her and asks her about Elanor.
She is a smart woman, she again starts running and finally she enters her place. The man
also follows her and reaches there. She somehow managed to slit his throat and kill him and
burns his body. She then takes her daughter Elanor with her and leaves the town. They
arrives at a new town. Elanor thinks that she had came here before as the place seems
known to her. They don't have any place to live. Clara meets Noah luckily. He is a single
man who runs a hotel named Byzantium, but this hotel is closed for days. Clara being
a smart woman, makes Noah her boyfriend and convinces him to let her and Elanor to stay
in the hotel. They are staying in the hotel now and Elanor
starts to play piano at one bar to earn some money. There we see a man named Frank. He
gets impressed by listening her piano and eventually he starts liking her. Elenor ignores
this man. Now we see Clara lies to Noah that she and Elanor are sisters. Here we will see
a flashback of Elanor. Elanor was never a vampire, she was a normal human but she was
turned into a vampire for some reasons.Now some special investigators are investigating
the murder of the man whom Clara killed. Clara on the other hand convinces Noah to open the
hotel again. He agrees and she starts a prostitution business.
Again we will see some flashback of Elanor that shows that when she was 16 years old
she was raped by a man. Coming back to the present, Clara warns her that she can never
tell anyone about them, that they are vampires. Here Elanor dictates her mother's story to
the viewers. Near about 200years ago, Clara was a young girl but she was an orphan. One
day two royal Navy officer named Darwin and Ruthwill founds her and Ruthwill convinced
her to become a prostitute. After some months she became pregnant and she was told to abort
the baby. She didn't want to abort so she gave birth to it and this baby was Elanor.
Clara then left Elanor at an orphanage and used to visit her everyday. This orphanage
is in this town where they are living currently that's why Elanor remembers this place.
One day somehow Frank has an accident and his hand gets cut and starts bleeding. Elanor
helps him to get his home. Frank's parents takes him to the hospital. On the other hand
Clara is searching people and drinking their blood as she is getting weak now. Elanor then
goes to the hospital to see Frank. There his mother tells her that he has leukemia cancer
and that's why he was loosing so much blood. She thinks of killing Frank by drinking his
blood but couldn't, she only drinks blood of old people or ill people who have very
less time on the earth. She is frustrated at her life. Then she looks for someone from
whom she can drink blood. She founds an old woman in the hospital and drinks her blood.
Here we will see that Clara and Elanor are very different from each other. She doesn't
likes her mother's rule and that's why they always fight about this.
Elanor joins a college and Frank also studies there. One day they get a homework from their
teacher Kevin, to write an essay on their past life. We see that when Elanor was staying
at the orphanage she used to look out of the window and could see Clara standing there.
This used to scare her as she was told that her parents were dead. Here we see Frank is
showing interest on her. She tells him that they can never be together as this will cause
them harm. Now Elanor again tells us her mother's story. When Elanor was 16, Clara finds out
she will die soon as she has tuberculosis. And Ruthwill also came to the town. Then after
some day another person came to meet Clara and Ruthwill who was Darwin. He was looking
very young at time. He was very rich but he has no one to look after his properties. Ruthwill
felt greedy when he became sick and thought to take his property after his death. After
some days two men came from a group named brotherhood. They gave Darwin a map and told
him that he will find the cure for his sickness there. He didn't waste any time and went to
that ancient island. There they saw a magical shrine means a temple. Darwin and Ruthwill
climbed up to the shrine when Darwin told Ruthwill to bring him water and he went inside
the shrine himself. After some time Ruthwill saw that the water of the fountain has changed
into blood. He went inside the shrine and found out Darwin's dead body. He left his
body there and came back and takes over his property. After some years Darwin came back
and looked fine as if nothing happened. Actually he became a vampire on that island and he
was immortal. Now coming back to the reality we see Elanor
is writing this story in her diary. And gives it to Frank. He doesn't believe her and tells
her that for the assignment she has to write a true story of her past life. She then tells
him that she didn't wrote it for the assignment, she wrote her story for him, so that he can
know the truth. But he doesn't believes it and gives the diary to his teacher Kevin.
Now again we will see the past story where Darwin gave the map to Ruthwill so that he
can become a vampire like him. But as Clara was also ill she wanted to go there and so
she stole the map from Ruthwill. She went to the island by herself and she also became
a vampire. Darwin got to know about this and took her to a secret society named Bethrine.
The society was disappointed that Clara being a prostitute became a vampire whereas they
were all noble men. They warned her that she should not tell anyone about the vampires
and she should not give the map to anyone. On the other hand Ruthwill thought of taking
revenge so he went to the orphanage and raped Elanor. Clara came there killed him. Elanor's
condition was not good at all so Clara took her as well to the island and made her a vampire.
She broke the code and the responsibility that was given to her. From that day onwards
this brotherhood vampire society is after her and her daughter. They are searching for
them. Now in the present Elanor is mad at Frank
as he had given the diary to the teacher and many people from the college now knows about
it. As she loves Frank and he has cancer, she decides to turn him into a vampire as
well, so that they can stay together forever. It is Frank's birthday now and he invites
her to his place. She goes there with the map of the island and gives it to him as a
gift. Kevin calls Clara at the college and there she knows that Elanor has told Frank
and her teacher everything about the secret. She gets so angry and kills Kevin there. She
comes home and scolds Elanor and tells her that her boyfriend also has to die as he knows
about the secret too. Elanor decides to leave the place and go away
from there just when Noah stops Clara and by mistake the lift falls on the shaft and
he falls down and dies on the process. And because of this the lift get stuck with Elanor
being inside the lift. Clara goes out to kill Frank. In the mean while two men from the
brotherhood society arrives at Elanor's college to investigate the place. They found the dead
body of Kevin. They say that they are police officer and finds out Elanor's address from
there easily. Here Elanor calls Frank from Noah's phone and tries to warns him but Clara
has already got there. Just when the fake police officer arrives there and gets Elanor
from the lift and arrests her. Clara is still on the phone and listens everything and finds
out that her daughter is arrested by the vampires. She leaves Frank and runs to her daughter
to save her. The vampires gets Elanor and her teacher Morich
in their car and starts driving. Morich also knows everything about Elanor. Here Elanor
gets to know that they are not real police rather they are the vampires from the brotherhood
society. And one of them is Darwin and other one is Sarvella. They take her to a deserted
place to kill her. Suddenly Clara comes there and jumps on the car. She breaks the glass
of the car. Sarvella tries to run over her but she survives. He then kills Morich as
well. Clara attacks him but both of them grab her. Darvin brings out a sword that he took
from Byzantium. Sarvella orders Darwin to behead her but instead of Clara, he beheads
Sarvella. Darwin loves Clara from the beginning. Then they all burn Sarvella's body and runs
away from there. As he has also broke a rule of the society to save Clara, he also have
to hide from the society. Clara then lets Elanor go with Frank and live her life. She
herself left with Darwin. Elanor takes Frank to the island with her and turns him into
a vampire. The movie ends here.
