King Richard had gained the name Lion Heart for his bravery in battle, especially, the Crusades or the Holy War. The Crusades were a series of battles spread over many years when the Christian armies of Europe fought to recover the holy land of Palestine -- the birthplace of Jesus Christ.

The great scenes of the tournament, the storming of the castle, and the trial by medieval life is depicted, including the famous Sherwood Forest and the monasteries.
It is exciting story of love, treachery, fighting, and enmity.
