It is the late 13th century, and William Wallace (Mel Gibson) has just returned to Scotland after living away from his homeland for many years. The King of Scotland has died without an heir, and the King of England, a ruthless pagan known as Edward the Longshanks, has seized the throne. When Wallace's wife (Catherine McCormack) is ravaged and murdered by English troops, his quest for revenge quickly turns into an impassioned fight for his country's freedom. Tales of Wallace's bravery inspire every commoner to take arms against the English and escalate their crusade into a full scale war. His bravery unites the Scottish people in this rich, emotionally charged epic filled with passion, betrayal and courage.
