In 1850, a killing on the remote French island of Saint-Pierre leaves the locals reeling. Two fishermen are taken into custody. One, Louis Ollivier, perishes while detained. The other, Neel Auguste, receives a death sentence by guillotine. Since the island is too small to possess either a guillotine or an executioner, Auguste is kept under an army Captain's watch while both are awaited.
