He assembles a gang of Robin Hood-style rebels, robbing from the rich and giving to the poor. When they publicly humiliate the Regent, a high bounty is placed on Cartouche's head. This is war. Cartouche steps up his planned vengeance by kidnapping Juliette, sister of the infamous chief of police. As the noble Juliette spends time with the righteous outlaws, she sees the misery of the people and is won over to their cause. Her ransom is paid and she arranges for Cartouche and his men to escape unharmed. Juliette secretly returns to Cartouche to profess her newfound love. But to spare her the life of a fugitive, he denies his true feelings and casts her away. When at last his mission is accomplished, Cartouche is finally prepared to rejoin his beloved Juliette. Will he be too late to recapture her heart?
