Directed by Roland Emmerich and starring Mel Gibson, the movie opens in 1776, during the American Revolutionary War. Benjamin Martin lives in South Carolina with his seven children after the death of his wife. He is a veteran of the French and Indian War who has decided to step away from conflict and devote himself to his farm. He is summoned to Charles Town to vote in the South Carolina General Assembly on a tax meant to support the Continental Army. Benjamin abstains. He fears war with Great Britain and doesn't want to force others to fight when he wouldn't fight himself. Despite his refusal, the vote passes, and the conflict begins knocking on his door.

Would you tell me please, Mr. Howard, why should I trade one tyrant 3000 miles away, for 3000 tyrants one mile away? An elected legislature can trample a man's rights as easily as a king can.
[Watching the Continental Army routed at Camden] These rustics are so inept. Nearly takes the honor out of victory... nearly.
[Joining the militia, to the surprise of his congregation] A shepherd must tend his flock. And at times... fight off the wolves.
[At Cowpens, sees Tavington's dragoons charge without Cornwallis' orders] Tavington. Damn him, DAMN THAT MAN!
[Forced to surrender at Yorktown] How could it come to this? A bunch of rabble... peasants. Everything will change...Everything has changed.
