Seven Samurai

A seasoned samurai is recruited by a village on the brink of collapse to lead a team of skilled warriors against ruthless bandits, seeking redemption and a chance to redeem their community.

A worn-out samurai accepts a village's plea for defense against marauding bandits, assembling a team of six skilled warriors to aid him. Together, they instruct the villagers in self-defense techniques, while the villagers provide the samurai with modest sustenance. The story reaches its climax with a massive conflict when 40 bandits launch a surprise attack on the village.
