The film Overlord Movie: Sei Oukoku-hen The Sacred Kingdom, at the center of the story, is a country that has long enjoyed a fragile peace, protected by a colossal wall built after a historical tragedy.

However, this peace is threatened when the fearsome demon Jaldabaoth shows up with a united army of monstrous tribes. Faced with this invading force, the leaders of the Sacred Kingdom realize that their defenses are not sufficient to repel the enemy.
