Wikipedia article 'The Count of Monte Cristo' (a.k.a. 'Le Comte de Monte Cristo') is a French-Italian four-part miniseries based on the 1844 novel 'The Count of Monte Cristo' by Alexandre Dumas pre. Plot Edmond Dants is falsely accused of Bonapartism and sentenced to spend the rest of his life imprisoned in the dreaded Chteau d'If, an island fortress from which no prisoner has ever escaped, and to which the most dangerous political prisoners are sent. While imprisoned, he meets Abb Faria, a fellow prisoner whom everyone believes to be mad. Abb tells Edmond of a fantastic treasure hidden away on a tiny island, that only he knows the location. After many years in prison, the old Abb dies, and Edmond escapes disguised as the dead body to find the treasure Abb told him of, so he can use the new-found wealth to exact revenge on those who have wronged him.
