Unter dem ehemaligen Marineoffizier François de Charette (Hugo Becker) formt sich innerhalb weniger Monate eine schlagkräftige, schwer fassbare Armee, die zur Gegenrevolution in einen blutigen Kampf um Selbstbestimmung und Freiheit zieht.
1793, French Revolution. For three years now, Charette, a young man retired from the Royal Navy, has been back home. In the country, the anger of the peasants rumbles: they call on the young retiree to take command of the rebellion. In a few months, the idle sailor becomes a charismatic leader and a shrewd strategist, bringing in his wake peasants, deserters, women, old people and children, of which he makes a formidable army. The fight for freedom has only just begun.
