Plot
The picture takes us to the distant 1280, when King Edward I the Leggy ruled the country. He conquered Scotland and so that the Scots would not dare to rebel against him, he forbade having weapons in the house. The brother and father of the protagonist (William Wallace) died in the battle with the royal guard, and the boy was raised by his uncle, whose name was Argyll.
After two decades, the hero returns to his native village in the hope of a quiet family life. His chosen one was called Marron, but fate was unfavorable to them. In order to avoid the terrible law "The Rights of the First Night," the heroes marry secretly. Soon after this joyful event, the soldiers of the king are trying to rape Marron, but William intervenes for her, and she dies in the fray. The next main plot twist is the killing of the sheriff by a key character and raising a riot by him, to which other villages join.
The hero collects an army and goes against the crown. He had both victories (the battle at the Sterling Bridge) and defeats (the Falker Battle). As a result, the main character is found by the people of the king and judged for treason to the crown. Wallace, even before his death, did not recognize the rule of England.
