A young king asserts his claim to France, facing betrayal, battle, and the weight of leadership.
A young King Henry seeks justification for his claim to the French throne. The Archbishop presents complex legal arguments in his favor, but a mocking gift of tennis balls from the French Dauphin spurs Henry to war. As he prepares for battle, he uncovers a plot against his life and delivers stirring speeches to rally his forces.
The conflict culminates at Agincourt, where Henry’s army faces overwhelming odds. The night before the battle, he disguises himself to walk among his soldiers, listening to their fears and offering them reassurance. With the weight of leadership upon him, he prays for victory, hoping his cause is just.
Through strategy, resolve, and sheer determination, Henry leads his outnumbered troops into one of history’s most famous battles, cementing his legacy as a warrior king.
