Rebel leader Princess Leia is held prisoner by Darth Vader aboard the Empire's most secret weapon, the Death Star. Jedi Master Obi-Wan Kenobi has received a distress message from the Princess via her droid R2-D2 and adventure-seeking farm boy Luke Skywalker. Hoping to rescue the Princess and aid the Rebels, they-along with hired smuggler Han Solo-infiltrate the Death Star. To assure Luke, Leia, and Han's escape, Obi-Wan holds off the Empire's forces by dueling with Darth Vader and sacrificing his own life.
