Synopsis:
In occupied 1941 France, a wealthy and successful lawyer, Jean-Louis Chavel, is taken prisoner by the Nazis and sentenced to be shot. But he strikes a bargain with a fellow captive, the tubercular Mangeot: Mangeot will take Chavel's place in front of the firing squad if Chavel will give his entire estate to Mangeot's sister and mother. Three years later, after the liberation of France, Chavel goes back to see his old home, now in the hands of Mangeot's family. He keeps his identity a secret from them, but discovers that Mangeot's sister Therese harbors a deep hatred for him. Nonetheless, he stays on as a gardener, and eventually falls in love with Therese. Then, one day, a collaborator, fleeing a murder rap and the Resistance, shows up claiming to be the real Chavel -- and Chavel learns exactly how much Therese detests him....

Notes:
Originally aired on television. Shot entirely in France, using Panavision equipment. Copyright 1988 The Tenth Man Company. Derek Jacobi won an Emmy for his portrayal as the imposter Chavel. Additional cast: Timothy Watson (Michel Mangeot) and Peter Jonfield (Roche).
