Last Stand of the 300 DVD

Artwork is currently in development for this product.
From the director of Aftershock: Beyond the Civil War.

The Battle of Thermopylae is now the subject of a major Hollywood epic.

This riveting feature-length documentary examines one of the most famous 'Last Stands' in history.

It is almost impossible to understand how 300 Spartans managed to hold off the million-man Persian army for even a moment, much less seven days. To a man they paid with their lives but their stunning Last Stand assured that their sacrifice would resonate throughout history.

Relying on brilliant tactics, lifelong training, and unshakable allegiance, the doomed Spartans achieved the impossible. The Battle of Thermopylae is literally a textbook case, required reading even to this day at military colleges and officer training around the world. Now, THE HISTORY CHANNEL® offers a definitive perspective on the epic conflict with this instructive and thrilling feature-length presentation.

Transporting dramatizations and incisive graphics put you in the heat of the battle and show the lay of the land. The complications and strategies of the conflict are revealed through careful analysis, and critical moments are reconstructed to show exactly what happened. Discover what the Spartans were fighting for, what made them capable of such heroics and what drove them to such sacrifice.

There has never been another battle like the LAST STAND OF THE 300. Never before this DVD has such an intricate and unlikely campaign been so thoroughly clarified.
