The story

France, 1803, is under Napoleon Bonaparte's rule, but royalist adversaries rally behind the mysterious Purple Mask, whose daring feats give them hope. A police captain, Rochet, goes after the Purple Mask only to be taken captive by him, whereupon Napoleon assigns the expert swordsman Brisquet to go after him. The lovely Laurette de Latour, daughter of a duke and romantic interest of Captain Laverne, is on the side of the royalists.
