Albert et Alain Ménard-Lacoste sont frères jumeaux. Le premier, Albert, a réussi sa vie : il est devenu un homme riche et respectable, craint de son entourage et menant une vie infernale à sa famille ; il est pourtant malheureux au fond de lui-même, sans aucunement vouloir le reconnaître. Le second, Alain, a beaucoup voyagé et vit très modestement. Lors d'un entretien entre les deux frères, Alain est brusquement emporté par un infarctus. Albert va alors endosser les habits et la personnalité de son frère, pour essayer de vivre la vie pleine d'aventures que son défunt frère a vécue au travers de nombreuses expériences en Amérique, une vie pleine de romantisme et de femmes, bien loin de l'univers guindé et monotone qu'Albert s'est construit, dans une rigidité d'« honnête homme », rempli de suffisance et de mépris pour ceux qui, comme son frère Alain, ont préféré les tumultes d'une vie incertaine, et pourtant pleine de goût et de souvenirs. Accueilli comme "Alain", l'héritier d'Albert, sa femme, Madeleine, croyant son mari réellement mort et n'agissant que par intérêt, veut épouser son nouveau "beau-frère". Le médecin de famille découvre alors la supercherie, poussant Albert à disparaître sans laisser de traces.

Detective Superintendent (Commissaire Principal) Pierre Niemans (Jean Reno), an investigator well known in Paris, is sent to the small rural university town of Guernon in the French Alps to investigate a brutal murder. The victim's body is found bound in the fetal position and suspended high on a cliff face, his eyes removed and his hands cut off. Niemans learns that the victim was a professor and the University's librarian, Remy Callois, and he seeks out a local ophthalmologist for an explanation to the removal of the eyes. Dr. Cherneze, once on the University staff, explains that the school's isolation led to in-breeding amongst the professors, with increasingly serious genetic disorders. Recently the trend has reversed, with the local village children becoming ill and the college babies remaining healthy. Cherneze hints that the killer is leaving Niemans clues to their motive by removing the body parts that are unique to each individual - the eyes and hands. Niemans questions the Dean and examines the librarian's apartment, where he finds images of athletic "supermen" juxtaposed with texts on genetic deformities. The Dean's assistant (and son) Hubert translates the title of Callois' Ph.D. thesis as, "We are the masters. We are the slaves. We are everywhere. We are nowhere. We control the crimson rivers.

It's a seemingly idyllic summer in 1935, and identical twins Niles and Holland Perry play around the bucolic family farm. Holland is an amoral mischief maker, though sympathetic Niles is often caught in their shenanigans. Niles carries a Prince Albert tobacco tin with him containing several secret trinkets, including something mysteriously wrapped in blue wax paper, and the Perry family ring, which had been handed down from their grandfather, through their father, to Holland, the older twin. Niles asks Holland to confirm that the ring is now indeed his. "Cripes yes, I gave it to you," is the response. Niles asks Holland to take the ring and the wrapped object back, but Holland insists "I gave them to you, they're yours now." Their obnoxious cousin Russell, whom the boys call "Piggy Lookadoo" behind his back, finds them in the apple cellar below the barn--a place they are not supposed to play--and happens to see the contents of the tobacco tin, including the ring. Russell cryptically states that the ring was supposed to be buried, and promises to "tell on" Niles to his father, Niles' Uncle George. Uncle George padlocks the door to the apple cellar to keep the kids from playing there, but there is another stairway inside the barn, giving them access to the cellar.
