Synopsis

Unjustly convicted of treason, Alfred Dreyfus has spent five years in solitary confinement on Devil’s Island in the Caribbean. He is weak from starvation and hopelessness. In Paris, his friends have secretly conspired to help him escape. They hire three unlikely adventurers to engineer one the most daring prison breaks in history: Dynamite Johnny O’Brien, smuggler and explosives expert; William Astor Chanler, millionaire, soldier, and US Congressman; and internationally-acclaimed actress Judith Rougemont. But Caliban, an agent of the French Secret Service, has found out about the plot and will do everything possible to prevent it.
