300

Slovenski opis filma:

Film se osredotoča na znano zgodovinsko bitko pri Termopilah, prvo bitko v grško-perzijskih vojnah. Leta 480 pr.n.št. so se Perzijci pod vodstvom kralja Kserksa zbrali in organizirali v sto in več tisoč glavo vojsko, odločeni, da bodo napadli in osvojili majhen grški narod. Toda ko so perzijske sile vstopile na grško ozemlje in se soočile z zahrbtnim gorskim terenom Termopil, jih je tam pričakala skromna tristoglava vojska špartanskega kralja Leonidasa.

Originalni opis filma:

In the Battle of Thermopylae of 480 BC an alliance of Greek city-states fought the invading Persian army in the mountain pass of Thermopylae. Vastly outnumbered, the Greeks held back the enemy in one of the most famous last stands of history. Persian King Xerxes lead a Army of well over 100,000 (Persian king Xerxes before war has about 170,000 army) men to Greece and was confronted by 300 Spartans, 700 Thespians, and 400 Thebans. Xerxes waited for 10 days for King Leonidas to surrender or withdraw but left with no options he pushed forward. After 3 days of battle all the Greeks were killed. The Spartan defeat was not the one expected, as a local shepherd, named Ephialtes, defected to the Persians and informed Xerxes that the separate path through Thermopylae, which the Persians could use to outflank the Greeks, was not as heavily guarded as they thought.
