Pierre Blanchar is a former nobleman living in poverty in his barren castle in southwest France. A troupe of actors happens by seeking shelter, the beginning of his transformation to a new identity: the debonair Captain Fracasse. He falls in love with young Lien Deyers, the ingenue of the company, and follows them to Paris. A selfish Duke, Charles Boyer, also falls in love with her, which leads to fighting, duels and kidnapping. Fracasse must rescue the girl and defeat the Duke, in the best swashbuckling tradition.
