FROM IMDB PAGE

William Wallace is a Scottish rebel who leads an uprising against the cruel English ruler Edward the Longshanks, who wishes to inherit the crown of Scotland for himself. When he was a young boy, William Wallace's father and brother, along with many others, lost their lives trying to free Scotland. Once he loses another of his loved ones, William Wallace begins his long quest to make Scotland free once and for all, along with the assistance of Robert the Bruce.

---
Young William Wallace witnesses Longshanks` treachery, survives the deaths of his father and brother and is taken abroad on a pilgrimage throughout Europe by his paternal Uncle Argyle, where he is educated. Longshanks orders his son Prince Edward to stop Wallace by any means necessary. Wallace leads his army to victory at the Battle of Stirling Bridge and then destroys the city of York, killing Longshanks` nephew and sending his severed head to the king. Worried by the threat of the rebellion, Longshanks sends his son`s wife Isabella of France to try to negotiate with Wallace as a distraction for the landing of another invasion force in Scotland.

Warned of the coming invasion by Isabella, Wallace implores the Scottish nobility to take immediate action to counter the threat and take back the country. Leading the English army himself, Longshanks confronts the Scots at Falkirk where noblemen Lochlan and Mornay, having been bribed by Longshanks, betray Wallace, causing the Scots to lose the battle. As Wallace charges toward the departing Longshanks on horseback, he is intercepted by one of the king`s lancers, who turns out to be Robert the Bruce but filled with remorse, Bruce gets Wallace to safety before the English can capture him. Wallace kills Lochlan and Mornay for their betrayal, and wages a guerrilla war against the English for the next seven years, assisted by Isabella, with whom he eventually has an affair.

Isabella exacts revenge on the now terminally ill Longshanks by telling him that his bloodline will be destroyed upon his death as she is now pregnant with Wallace`s child. In 1314, Robert, now Scotland`s king, leads a Scottish army before a ceremonial line of English troops on the fields of Bannockburn, where he is to formally accept English rule. Robert then leads his army into battle against the stunned English, winning the Scots their freedom.
