Plot : Based
on the true story of the Beast of the Gevaudan that terrorised France in
the mid-XVIIIth century, the movie aims to tell first and explain afterwards.
In the first part, a special envoy of the King of France, altogether biologist,
explorer and philosopher, arrives in the Gevaudan region, in the mountainous
central part of France. The Beast has been attacking women and children
for months and nobody has quite been able to harm it or even take a good
look at it. In the second part, our hero Chevalier de Fronsac will not
only have to fight the Beast, but also ignorance, bigotry and conspiracy
and will rely on two women, one an aristocrat, the other a prostitute,
as well as the enigmatic Mani, an Iroquois he met in New-France (Canada).
