Story
In 1250 B.C., during the late Bronze Age, a political and romantic conflict emerges between Troy and Sparta. Paris, a Trojan prince, convinces Helen, Queen of Sparta, to leave her husband Menelaus and return with him to Troy. When Menelaus discovers this, he persuades his brother Agamemnon to help him retrieve Helen, seeing it as an opportunity for personal gain. Agamemnon leads an army of 50,000 Greeks, aboard 1,000 ships, towards Troy. The film follows the Greek assault on Troy and chronicles the fates of key individuals involved.
