300 è il numero di spartani che si opposero al re persiano Serse nel 480 A.C. Questa pellicola narra infatti di una storia realmente accaduta, di una battaglia epica combattuta al passo delle Termopili che vedeva contrapporsi 300 spartani contro un milione di persiani. Re Serse, spinto dalla sua insaziabile sete di conquista, invia un messaggero in Grecia, a Sparta, che viene accolto dal re Leonida (G. Butler) e dalla regina Gorgo (L. Headey). Ma quando l’emissario pronuncia la parola 'sottomissione' decreta l’inizio della semi-disfatta per i persiani. Leonida, dopo aver ucciso il messaggero, decide di affrontare questa nuova minaccia chiamata Persia: dopo aver radunato 300 tra i migliori combattenti spartani si dirige allo stretto passo delle Termopili per contrastare il temibile nemico..
