Part of Rendez-Vous with French Cinema 2012

After the execution of Louis Mandrin, a famous outlaw and mid-18th century folk hero, his companions decide to take the risk of another campaign in France’s southern provinces.

Under the protection of heavily armed comrades, they set up illegal markets outside rural villages, where they sell tobacco, fabrics and precious goods. They write songs in Mandrin’s honour, print them and distribute them to the King’s lowliest subjects…

In French with English subtitles.
