The story of a challenge to death
When disillusioned Swedish knight Antonius Block returns home from the Crusades to find his country in the grips of the Black Death, he challenges Death to a chess match for his life. Tormented by the belief that God does not exist, Block sets off on a journey, meeting up with traveling players Jof and his wife, Mia, and becoming determined to evade Death long enough to commit one redemptive act while he still lives.
عندما عاد الفارس السويدي أنطونيوس بلوك المحبط إلى وطنه من الحروب الصليبية ليجد بلده في قبضة الموت الأسود ، يتحدى الموت في مباراة شطرنج طوال حياته. بعد تعذيبه بالاعتقاد بأن الله غير موجود ، ينطلق Block في رحلة ، حيث يلتقي باللاعبين المسافرين جوف وزوجته ميا ، ويصبح مصمماً على التهرب من الموت لفترة كافية لارتكاب فعل تعويضي واحد بينما لا يزال على قيد الحياة.
