France, 1789. An anonymous hero known as the Chartreuse Fox fights for revolution. Meanwhile, a noble woman, Lady Marie DeValle helps François Demarigny to teach two outlaw men using the example of the Greek hero Hercules. However, nothing is what it seems, and who's actually cheating whom?—Anonymous
During the French Revolution, aristocrat François Demarigny keeps reciting Hercules's ancient myths as example of heroism and moral nobility and inciting to help finance the revolution as modern counterpart. His living hero is the Robin Hood-like Chartreuse Fox, who keeps eluding royal guards captain Gerard. Lady Marie DeValle seems convinced and joins his efforts to convert shabby scoundrels Robert and Jean-Pierre, who protest commoners like them have more pressing priorities. Later on it becomes (un)clear that all have their secrets.—KGF Vissers
