A young man journeys from a difficult childhood to maturity, exploring social injustice, personal development, and the complexities of human relationships.

The television series, based on Victor Hugo's 1862 novel of the same name, is one of the most impressive television adaptations of a literary work. Filmed in 1963 over a period of four months at the RAI headquarters in Via Teulada, it is set in France between 1815 and 1833.

Three shady-looking men arrive at a small mountain inn in an attempt to recover the treasure hidden in the hotel by the old owner and her grandson, who was killed by the three crooks. During dinner, the waitress recounts the legend of the mountain rooster. If the rooster crows at midnight, it warns that the angel of death is coming for one of the inhabitants of the house.
