In a swashbuckling adventure film that was one of the main inspirations for Raiders of the Lost Ark, French military man Adrien Dufourquet (Jean-Paul Belmondo) returns to Paris on leave and witnesses his fiancée Agnès (Françoise Dorléac) being kidnapped, along with a mysterious Colombian statue. He pursues her and her kidnappers all the way through South America to Brazil, where he will discover that this statue is in fact the key to a secret treasure.
