The story follows Robin Longstride, a skilled archer and soldier who fights alongside King Richard the Lionheart in the Crusades. When Richard dies, Robin and his companions return to England, where they find the country in chaos and under the rule of the corrupt Prince John. With the help of Lady Marion (Cate Blanchett) and other allies, Robin becomes a symbol of hope for the people and leads a rebellion against the unjust regime.
