**Storyline:**
Set in Paris during the Reign of Terror, *Quills* follows the imprisoned Marquis de Sade as he writes provocative tales, including the story of Mademoiselle Renard, a young aristocrat who encounters a notorious sadist. Years later, the Marquis is confined to the Charenton Asylum for the Insane, overseen by Abbé du Coulmier. Despite his captivity, the Marquis continues to publish his works with the help of Madeleine “Maddy” LeClerc, a laundress who smuggles his manuscripts to a publisher.
When the Marquis’ latest work, *Justine*, gains popularity on the black market, Emperor Napoléon Bonaparte orders its destruction and demands the author’s execution. However, his advisor suggests a different approach: sending Dr. Royer-Collard to assess the asylum and silence the Marquis.
Meanwhile, Abbé du Coulmier teaches Madeleine to read and write, sparking a mutual attraction between them. Madeleine becomes captivated by the Marquis’ stories but resists his advances. Dr. Royer-Collard arrives at the asylum, pressuring the Abbé to silence the Marquis or face the institution’s closure. Despite the threats, the Marquis maintains his defiant spirit.
Royer-Collard’s personal life takes a dark turn when he marries Simone, an underage orphan, and subjects her to a life of abuse and imprisonment. The film intertwines themes of censorship, morality, and the power of literature as the Marquis’ writings continue to provoke and inspire.
