At the end of the eighteenth century, Marianne, a painter, is teaching an art class in France. One of her students asks her about a painting of hers, which Marianne calls Portrait de la jeune fille en feu.
Marianne finishes the portrait, but finds herself unable to betray Héloïse's trust and reveals her true reason for arriving. After Héloïse criticises the painting, which does not seem to portray her true nature, Marianne destroys the work. Héloïse's mother is shocked to hear that Héloïse is willing to pose for Marianne over the next few days, while her mother will be away on the mainland. Marianne is haunted throughout the house by visions of Héloïse in a wedding dress. One evening, they read the story of Orpheus and Eurydice and debate the true reason why Orpheus turns around to look at his wife, causing her to be returned to the underworld. The pair help Sophie, the house maid, have an abortion. Later, the three go to a bonfire gathering where women sing, during which Héloïse's dress briefly catches fire.
The next day, Marianne and Héloïse share their first kiss and make love later that night. Over the next few days, their romance grows stronger. With their affair about to be cut short by the ensuing return of The Countess, Marianne sketches a drawing of Héloïse to remember her by, and Héloïse asks Marianne to draw a sketch of herself on page 28 of her book. The Countess approves of the now completed portrait, and the next morning Marianne bids farewell. As she is about to leave the house, she hears Héloïse say, "Turn around". She turns and sees Héloïse in her wedding dress.
In the present, Marianne reveals that she saw Héloïse two more times. The first time was in the form of a portrait at an art exhibition, where Héloïse, with a child beside her, is surreptitiously holding a book showing only the edge of page 28. The second time was at a concert in Milan, where Héloïse sat in a theater balcony across from Marianne. Unobserved, Marianne watches Héloïse as she becomes overwhelmed with emotion and comes to tears while listening to the orchestra play the Presto from "Summer" from Vivaldi's Four Seasons, the music that Marianne had played for her on a harpsichord years before.
The paintings and sketches in the film were made by artist Hélène Delmaire. She painted 16 hours every day during the course of filming, basing her painting on the blocking of the scenes. Her hands were also featured in the film. To mark the release of the film in France, Delmaire's paintings from Portrait of a Lady on Fire were exhibited at the Galerie Joseph in Paris from 20 to 22 September 2019.
On 22 August 2018, film distributor MK2 began the sale of international rights to the film, with Pyramide Films acquiring the distribution rights for France. On 10 February 2019, Curzon Artificial Eye acquired the rights for the United Kingdom, Karma Films did so for Spain, Cinéart for Benelux, and Folkets Bio for Sweden. Neon and Hulu acquired the distribution rights for North America on 22 May.
