Brief Synopsis of the Film:
Switzerland in the early 14th century: While the Holy Roman Empire is shaken by internal power struggles, the Habsburg King Albrecht (Ben Kingsley) wants to expand his power further. However, in the villages and valleys of Switzerland, his arbitrary rule ignites the people's resistance. When the hunter and former crusader Wilhelm Tell (Claes Bang) offers protection to a fleeing peasant, he inevitably becomes embroiled in the fight for his country's freedom. But it is only when Albrecht's brutal governor Gessler (Connor Swindells) publicly humiliates him and directly threatens his family that Tell makes an irreversible decision: He will not only become a resistance fighter – but the leader of a rebellion that will make history.
