Black Angel is the short film that was attached to initial screenings of Star Wars Episode V: The Empire Strikes Back. It’s about a knight (Tony Vogel) who returns from the Crusades, only to be transported to a fantasy world to rescue a princess from the clutches of a dark and mysterious character.

All copies of this 25-minute epic fantasy adventure were lost but recently the negatives were discovered and restored. Here’s the film with an introduction by director director Roger Christian.
