The story takes place in the Caribbean, where pirates are most active in legend. This mysterious sea area is located in the southeast of North America, where the blue sky is blue, the sun is shining and the sea surface is crystal clear. /kloc-in the 0/7th century, it was the only place where commercial fleets from the European continent reached America. Therefore, piracy was rampant at that time, attacking not only businessmen in the past, but even the Royal British Fleet.

The handsome and charming Jack (Johnny Depp) is a young pirate who is active in the Caribbean and owns his own "Black Pearl" pirate ship. For him, the most enjoyable life is to travel around the Caribbean in a' black pearl' and rob passing ships freely. Unfortunately, however, this carefree and unrestrained life is finally over-he was cheated by Barbossa, the pirate leader, and even his precious pirate ship' Black Pearl' was stolen by Barbossa.

Barbossa (geoffrey rush) leads a group of pirates and is a villain who does all kinds of evil. He not only robbed property, but also killed everyone on board, leaving no one alive. Ships passing through the Caribbean are frightened, most afraid of meeting Barbossa and his gang. After robbing Jack's' Black Pearl' pirate ship, Barbossa became even more rampant and became the overlord of the whole Caribbean for a time.

With Barbossa's growing power, his greedy ambition of immortality is also expanding. He tried to unlock the secret of the legendary magic gold coin and make himself immortal, but he was cursed by evil-every full moon night, Barbossa and other crew members on the Black Pearl would become skeletons, and they would abstain from food and drink for life, and even could not walk normally.

Barbossa became an immortal skeleton and led the Black Pearl to sail in the Caribbean. Once, they sailed into Port Royal, attacked the town, and kidnapped the governor's daughter elizabeth swann (Keira Knightley)-because the girl wore a mysterious gold coin around her neck. Will turner (Orlando Bloom), an apprentice blacksmith who grew up with Elizabeth, is deeply saddened to see his beloved girl captured by pirates. Coincidentally, Jack Sparrow, the former captain of the pirate ship Black Pearl, was also imprisoned in this seaside town because of his piracy.

Will, the blacksmith, managed to free Jack from the prison, and then they stole the fastest interceptor warship of the British Royal Fleet. In order to save the girl Elizabeth, whom Will loves deeply, and to recapture the Black Pearl, which belongs to him, Jack drives the Interceptor warship and quickly catches up with the Black Pearl.

The pirates thought that Elizabeth, wearing a mysterious gold coin, could help them break the mysterious spell and wanted to use her blood to perform witchcraft. Just at the critical moment, Will Blacksmith and Jack the Pirate brought the warship up. Behind them was Norrington, a royal officer who was chasing the stolen warship. As a result, the pirates erected the' skull flag', Jack pulled out his pistol and sword, Will waved his broadsword, Norrington ordered his men to pick up the pike, and a war between man and ghost began. ...
