England, 1403. With weak-willed King Richard II dead, ruthless Henry IV is ready to consolidate his power over England. But King Henry has a problem. The royal heir, Prince Henry -- Prince Hal to his friends -- has no interest in chivalry or politics. The rebellious young prince spends his days at the Boar's Head Tavern, learning sin and debauchery from prostitutes and pickpockets. Among the lowly is a fallen nobleman, Sir John Falstaff, whose irreverent outbursts contain serious lessons about war and the price of glory. With rebellion on the rise, can Prince Hal show his true colors, regain his father's respect, and save England from bloody civil war?
