"The newly crowned King of England, Henry V (Tom Hiddleston) is persuaded by his courtiers including Exeter (Anton Lesser) and York (Paterson Joseph), that he also has a rightful claim to lands in France. The Chorus (John Hurt) tells of England's preparations for war and Henry's army sails for France. After Exeter's diplomacy is rebuffed by the French King (Lambert Wilson) Henry lays a siege to and captures the town of Harfleur. The French now take Henry's claims seriously and challenge the English army to battle at Agincourt." -- Container
