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.
Antonius Block battles a silent God while wagering his very soul against a pale stranger in a game of chess. This stark journey through a plague-ridden landscape finds profound meaning in the small, fleeting joys of a traveling troupe.
