Wikipedia Plot
As Governor Weatherby Swann (Jonathan Pryce), his 12-year-old daughter, Elizabeth, and Lieutenant James Norrington (Jack Davenport) sail to Port Royal, Jamaica, their vessel encounters a shipwreck with a sole survivor, the boy Will Turner (played as an adult by Orlando Bloom). Elizabeth hides a gold medallion that the unconscious boy is wearing, fearing it will identify him as a pirate. She glimpses a ghostly pirate ship, later identified as the Black Pearl.
Eight years later, Captain James Norrington of the Royal Navy is promoted to Commodore. He proposes to Elizabeth (Keira Knightley). Before she can answer, her overtightened corset causes her to faint and fall into the bay. When the medallion she is wearing touches the seafloor, it emits a pulse to the cursed ship Black Pearl.
The notorious pirate Captain Jack Sparrow (Johnny Depp) arrives in Port Royal to commandeer a ship. He rescues Elizabeth from sea, but Commodore Norrington recognizes Jack as a pirate and arrests him.

Will then persuades Jack Sparrow to help him rescue her in exchange for Jack's freedom. Jack agrees after learning Will's surname is "Turner", believing he can use Will to reclaim the Pearl. Will and Jack commandeer the HMS Interceptor and recruit a crew in Tortuga with help from Jack's old friend, Joshamee Gibbs (Kevin McNally). They set sail for Isla de Muerta, as Jack knows the pirates will go there to break the curse.
Will learns Jack was once captain of the Pearl, questing for Aztec gold, when Barbossa, Jack's first mate at the time, mutinied and marooned him on an island. Following the Pirate Code, Barbossa gave Jack a pistol with a single shot, intended for suicide. But, Jack Sparrow escaped three days later and kept the pi
