The best friend of young lawyer André-Louis Mors is cold-bloodedly killed in a duel by a highborn marquis. Mors vows to take revenge.
Attempts to seek justice from royal justice end in nothing, and a disappointed André-Louis addresses the people with a fiery speech.
Riots break out in the city, and the local prosecutor accuses Mors of inciting rebellion.
A squad of gendarmes is sent to search for the troublemaker, and Mors joins a wandering theater troupe and hides under the mask of Scaramouche — a boastful and charming scoundrel and rogue. Ahead of him await intrigues, adventures, a new encounter with his worst enemy, and, of course, true love.
