Star Wars: Episode IV - A New Hope (1977)
Set far in the past in a distant galaxy, the movie tells the story of a plot against an oppressive
Galactic Empire by a group of freedom fighters known as the Rebel Alliance. Seeking to make their
authority absolute, the Empire has recently completed its ultimate weapon: the Death Star, a
moon-sized battle station capable of destroying a planet. Even so, spies have managed to obtain
schematic plans of the station in the hope of finding a weakness. Rebel leader Princess Leia
Organa is racing to transport these plans to the rebel base when her ship is attacked and she and
the crew are captured by Imperial forces. In a desperate attempt to complete her mission, Leia
hides the plans within one of her two servant robots and records a quick message to former
military general and rebel sympathizer: Obi-Wan Kenobi. Explaining her circumstances, she begs
Kenobi see that the plans are delivered safely to the base. The androids are then launched, in an
escape pod, to Tatooine, where they come into the possession of teenaged farmer, Luke
Skywalker. The secret message is soon discovered, and Skywalker sets off to locate Kenobi and
find a way to help the Princess.
