Adaptation of Joseph Conrad novel about lust and violence on a South Seas Island.

A rich Easterner who has always wanted to live in "the Wild West" plans to move to a Western town. Unknown to him, the town's "wild" days are long gone and it is an orderly and civilized place now. The townsmen, not wanting to lose a rich potential resident, contrive to make over the town to suit the young man's fantasy.

In this movie, Max Linder parodies the famous novel "The Three Musketeers".
