Plot summary
In fifteenth-century France, Charles, the Duke of Burgundy, and his allies hold King Louis XI besieged in Paris, and even inside the city his rule is disputed. François Villon, a beggar poet, leads the commoners and cares nothing for the king. Louis puts on a disguise and enters a tavern to judge Villon for himself. There Villon, who resents Thibault, the king's provost marshal, draws his sword on him.
