Banished from Duke Senior's court, young Rosalind flees to the Forest of Arden along with Duke Senior's daughter, her cousin Celia. Disguised as the handsome Ganymede and simple shepherdess Aliena, the two hide from her cruel uncle and hope for a new life. Nearby, the dashing Orlando is also seeking shelter in the forest, far from his malicious brother Oliver and the feud that began with a wrestling match but has escalated into a plot against his life. Heartbroken at being away from his beloved Rosalind, he encounters 'Ganymede', who promises to cure Orlando with love lessons. Meanwhile, local shepherdess Phoebe also has her eye on Ganymede, despite the advances of smitten shepherd Silvius. As the hopes and dreams of the group entangle with one another, can everyone get what they truly want?
