Das siebente Siegel (1957)
Mitte des 14. Jahrhunderts durchstreift die Pest ganz Europa. Der Ritter Antonius Block ist als junger Mann hinaus in das Heilige Land gezogen, um seinen Glauben zu festigen. Er kehrt in seine Heimat Schweden zurück, da ihn Zweifel an der Existenz Gottes quälen. Der Schwarze Tod hat auch dort Angst und Schrecken verbreitet. Der personifizierte Tod steht ihm gegenüber. Antonius Block bittet um Aufschub und schlägt ihm eine Partie Schach vor, die die Entscheidung über sein junges Leben fällen soll. Bevor er sterben muss, möchte der Ritter noch eine bedeutende Tat vollbringen: Eine herumziehende Schauspielerfamilie, die inmitten aller Leiden ihre Lebensfreude bewahrt hat, möchte er retten.
