So here\\u2019s the story so far:

Andre-Louis, a privileged lawyer from Gavrillac, is on a mission to speak out for the downtrodden, especially the poor who have fewer rights than the nobles. After speaking out in Rennes and later at Nantes, he is on the run from the law, who wish to take him to task for his harsh words. As he\\u2019s hiding in a barn, he happens upon some traveling players. He joins their band as a carpenter and laborer.
