Synopsis: After his defeat at Waterloo, Napoleon Bonaparte was exiled to the south Atlantic island of St. Helena, where he died a few years later. Or did he? Using a combination of historical record and creative speculation, renowned director Antoine de Caunes has crafted a fascinating portrait of the Emperor in exile, one that explores a remarkable theory: Napoleon may have escaped from St. Helena in a ruse so clever that to this day it has remained undiscovered.
