Legenden om tyven som stjal fra de rike og ga til de fattige er over 800 år gammel. Den baserer seg på virkelige hendelser. En gruppe bønder, ledet av en adelsmann fratatt sin eiendom, laget opprør mot en korrupt hersker i England på 1100-tallet. De krevet sin rett og deres kamp blir betegnet som det første vellykkede opprør mot den herskende klasse. Historien ble imidlertid skrevet ned først 200 år senere. I mellomtiden ble hendelsen en av datidens store legender og skapte en av de største helter i historien - Robin Hood.

Da Robin av Loxley, kommer hjem fra korstogene ser han at korrupsjon, griskhet og vold har tatt over hans en gang fredelige hjemby. Sammen med sin mauriske medhjelper John starter et opprør mot sheriffen av Nottingham og hans medhjelpere i kirken for å gi tilbake til de fattige det som er stjålet fra dem.
