Synopsis:
The time is 1792. In France, the Revolution has turned unthinkably bloody. Madame Guillotine feeds upon hundreds of French men and women, too many of whom are innocent of any crime. Out of this chaos, one man emerges to right the wrong. With his small band of men, he defies all odds, saving the doomed French in one ingenious rescue after another. He is known only as the Scarlet Pimpernel.
