The story begins in 1815, when Edmond Dantès, a young and successful merchant sailor, is falsely accused of treason by his friends and sentenced to life imprisonment. Dantès' betrayal is a result of his own success and the envy of those who were once his friends. While incarcerated, Dantès befriends an elderly prisoner, Faria, who shares with him the location of a hidden treasure on the island of Monte Cristo. After Faria's death, Dantès manages to escape from prison and sets out to find the treasure.
