A TV adaptation of the classic Alexandre Dumas novel. Edmond Dantes is falsely accused by those jealous of his good fortune, and is sentenced to spend the rest of his life in the notorious island prison, Chateau d'If.

The Abbe tells Edmond of a fantastic treasure hidden away on a tiny island, that only he knows the location of.
