Sir Gawain is challenged by the Green Knight to cut off his head with the promise that he will seek him out a year later to receive the same blow.
'The Green Knight' is a fantasy story based on a poem from the 14th century. The film does not try to interpret or inspire a certain direction of interpretation, but only adds to the native art of the poem some visual mastery and the talent of a very skilled cast. Very visually pleasing, even with the scenes that can easily be called slow.
