"Bohemian Rhapsody" is a 2018 film biopic directed by Bryan Singer and Dexter Fletcher. The film tells the story of the legendary British rock band Queen and in particular that of the charismatic frontman Freddie Mercury (Rami Malek).

The film begins with the formation of the band in 1970 and shows the years of Queen's rise, their greatest hits and the personal challenges that the members of the band had to overcome. It focuses primarily on the story of Freddie Mercury, who comes to London as a young man with his band and quickly achieves superstar status.

The film shows Mercury's personal and artistic development, his relationships, his inner struggles and his increasingly fragile health. It also addresses the conflict between Mercury's desire for self-determination and his need for public recognition.

Rami Malek delivers an impressive performance as Freddie Mercury, for which he has won numerous awards, including the Academy Award for Best Leading Actor.
