Киноверсия, основанная на истории реального Макбета — короля Шотландии, представляется режиссером как архетипичная история об опасности чрезмерной жажды власти и измене друзьям.
Two ex-soldiers return from overseas--one of them having smuggled into the country a French orphan girl he has become attached to. They wind up running into their old sergeant--who hates them--and getting involved with a race-car builder who's trying to find backers for a new midget racer he's building.
