The film opens up with perhaps the most iconic music in movie history, THE Star Wars theme plays as credits detailing the back story (Rebels vs Empire, stolen Imperial Death Star plans) roll. When they finish the scene cuts to what appears to be empty space, but as the camera pans down at first see a small moon in the distance and what at the time is an unknown Desert planet (later reviled to be Tatooine) and a ship firing lasers flies past, we then see it pursuer and target, a much larger triangular destroyer (Star Destroyer), the first two minutes end as we see the small Rebel ship take a direct hit from the Star Destroyer.
What the clip dose is set up the back story and general plot of the film (Rebels trying to destroy the Death Star) and the genre, sci-fi (although some would argue that it is a western set in space, with a Death Star).
