The Narrative Arc & Core Premise

Debuting in N/A, Hood: A Legend Reborn represents a sophisticated intersection of artistic ambition and genre-defining elements within the Action, Adventure, History category. The primary thematic concern of the film is an investigation into The year is 1180 AD. As the story unfolds, we are introduced to a world where the traditional boundaries of Action, Adventure, History are tested.

King Richard the lion heart has distributed power to the Lords of the land in his absence. The Sheriff of each town has been authorised to enforce the law and maintain order, ensuring the people abide by their civil duties and pay their taxes. Robert Loxely, the Lord of Nottinghamshire, returns from fighting in the crusades along side his closest life long friend. He honours him by making him the Sheriff of Nottingham. Robin, only a young boy, watches as his father is betrayed by the Sheriff and executed before him. Several years later and now a veteran of the war himself, Robin wanders the land alone. A chance meeting places him at the feet of a rebellion. Those who have been outcast and banished from the city. Their villages raped and pillaged at the hands of the tyrannical Sheriff. Robin now has a choice, to turn his back on his home land, or stand, fight and lead the rebellion against the merciless Sheriff and his men."
