Prospero, a potent magician, lives on a desolate isle with his virginal daughter, Miranda. He's in exile, banished from his duchy by his usurping brother and the King of Naples. Providence brings these enemies near; aided by his vassal the spirit Ariel, Prospero conjures a tempest to wreck the Italian ship. The king's son, thinking all others lost, becomes Prospero's prisoner, falling in love with Miranda and she with him. Prospero's brother and the king wander the island, as do a drunken cook and sailor, who conspire with Caliban, Prospero's beastly slave, to murder Prospero. Prospero wants reason to triumph, Ariel wants his freedom, Miranda a husband; the sailors want to dance.

Coincidiendo con el jubileo de la Reina Isabel II, Derek Jarman rueda esta película en la que la Reina Isabel I invoca con ayuda del ocultista John Dee a un espíritu guía llamado Ariel, que les transportará en el tiempo a la Inglaterra de los 70. En esta Inglaterra figurada tomada por el caos, la Reina Isabel II ha sido asesinada, y las pandillas, como la de Amyl Nitrate, Bod, Chaos, Crabs, y Mad, hacen de las suyas por doquier. Jubilee es quizás la película más emblemática del punk, apareciendo en ella iconos de este movimiento como Adam Ant, las Slits o Wayne County.
