Life of a charismatic adventurer, Captain Jack Sparrow, is full of exciting adventures, and it changes dramatically when his sworn enemy - Captain Barbossa - kidnaps Jack's ship, the Black Pearl, and later attacks the Port Royal and steals a lovely governor's daughter, Elizabeth Swann. Elizabeth's childhood friend, Will Turner, organizes a rescue mission with Jack on the fastest ship in Britain in an attempt to rescue the girl from captivity, and at the same time to take away Black Pearl from the villain. An ambitious Commodore Norrington follows them, also being Elizabeth's fiance. However, Will does not know that over Barbossa an eternal damnation is hanging and in the moonlight it turns him and his team in living skeletons. The curse will be removed only when the stolen gold of Aztec pirates is returned to the original place.
