aka Le hussard sur le toit.
"Cholera avoids me like the plague."
It's 1832 in Cholera ravaged Southern France and Angelo Pardi (Olivier Martinez), an Italian huzzar is being chased by Austrian secret police and locals suspicious of strangers. He ends up being helped by Pauline de Théus (Juliette Binoche), and when he bumps into her again on his journey he vows to help her continue her journey. Thus they pair up and head across the cursed land, one on the run, the other on the hunt.
A fantastically realised historical epic adventure, full of historical detail.
