Monte-Cristo

Edmon Dantès, a 19-year-old sailor, arrives in Marseille to get engaged the next day to the beautiful Catalan, Mercédès.
Betrayed by jealous "friends", he was denounced as a Bonapartist conspirator and locked up in a jail in the Château d'If, off the coast of Marseille. After fourteen years of imprisonment, he manages to escape and then undertakes to take revenge methodically on those who wrongly accused him.

ABOUT...
The art of series so popular in our homes is not new. In 1844, Dumas began publishing the serial novel The Count of Monte-Cristo, which has remained legendary. With their exceptional talent, the storyteller Nicolas Bonneau, the musician-actress Fanny Chériaux and the guitarist Mathias Castagné revisit this monument in the style of a thrilling radio thriller to watch, a soap opera with "tarantinesque" allures with "morriconian" accents, mixing satire social and romantic impulses.
