An exiled Napoleon devises a plan to retake the throne. He'll swap places with commoner Eugene Lenormand, sneak into Paris, then Lenormand will reveal himself and Napoleon will regain his throne. Things don't go at all well; first, the journey proves more difficult than expected, but more disastrously, Lenormand enjoys himself too much to reveal the deception. Napoleon adjusts somewhat uneasily to the life of a commoner while waiting, as Lenormand gorges on rich food.

In this reimagining of the last years of Napoleon, loyalists hire a lookalike to swap places with the emperor during his exile. While the impostor lives in luxury on the island of St. Helena, the real Napoleon heads to Paris.

This is the epic tale of love, honor, and obsession amidst the dramatic backdrop of early 19th century France.
