Au Ve siècle avant Jésus-Christ, dans la Grèce antique d’avant Périclès, le jeune éphèbe Sostratos qui se prépare pour les prochains Jeux Olympiques, connaît dans sa ville natale de Sycione, une véritable dévotion des habitants pour sa beauté plastique et ses performances pugilistiques. Tandis qu’il se pavane au milieu de ses admirateurs, un énigmatique voyageur venant d’arriver dans le bourg et se faisant appeler Ménesthée, le critique effrontément face à l’attitude de l’entourage du jeune athlète dont les flatteries ne peuvent que le nuire pour ses futures exploits. Bien que plus âgé, Ménesthée lui propose le défi suivant : « S’il parvient à battre le garçon au bras de fer, ce dernier devra le suivre et dans le cas contraire, l’homme quittera sans retour le village ». Bien que vexé, l’orgueilleux Sostratos, intrigué par ce vieil homme autoritaire accepte le combat, qu’il perd, comme il se doit.

The film consists of 5 parts. The first part introduces Sylvain, Marquis of Bois-Doré, a companion-in-arms of late king Henry IV of France. Following his sovereign the marquis had to abjure his Calvinist faith and adopt Catholicism though he secretly sympathizes with Protestants. After the king's death he retired and went to his castle of Bois-Doré. The marquis feels deep love for Lauriane de Beuvre, a daughter of his friend and neighbour, 30 years younger than him. Guillaume d'Ars, Sylvain's cousin, introduces to him a certain Villaréal, a Spanish nobleman. The second part concentrates on relations between Bois-Doré, Lauriane, and Villaréal. The latter has found out that the marquis hides in the castle treasures of Protestants and begins to search for them. Besides Villareal pays his addresses to Lauriane. Bois-Doré challengs him to a duel and kills him. The third part tells about Mario, an 18 old youth whom the marquis saved from mercenaries. Mario has striking resemblance to marquis's brother who was lost 18 years ago. Bois-Doré finds evidence of Mario being his nephew and proclaims him an heir to his title and estate. The handsome boy wins Lauriane's affection. The fourth part focuses on relations between Bois-Doré, Lauriane, and Mario. The latter falls in love with Lauriane whose heart is torn by sincere respect for noble, generous but elderly Sylvain and affection to young Mario. The fifth part tells about hostilities between France and Spain, in which Sylvain and Mario take an active part. Mario has been severely wounded in action and Lauriane realizes that she cannot live without him.
