About

Quick guide

George Lucas’ 1977 sci‑fi adventure follows a farm boy, a smuggler, and droids as they battle an oppressive empire and rescue a princess.

In a galaxy far, far away, a simple farm boy named Luke Skywalker discovers a hidden message from a captured princess that could turn the tide against the Empire’s newest weapon, the Death Star. With the help of an old Jedi, a rogue smuggler, a wookiee, and a pair of droids, Luke embarks on a daring rescue mission. The film mixes high‑speed space travel, daring ground battles, and the first glimpses of the Force, all while exploring themes of destiny, rebellion, and the power of hope. Though it ends with a monumental space battle, the story remains centered on the personal growth of its characters and the collective fight for freedom.
