Based on the true story of the Beast of the Gevaudan that terrorised France in the mid-18th century, the movie aims to tell first and explain afterwards. In the first part, a special envoy of the King of France, a biologist, explorer and philosopher all in one, 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, a Mohawk he met in New-France (Canada)
