In August 1792 No. 38, Rue Maugout, a crooked old house in the Faubourg St. Antoine, shelters la Mère Corniche in its cellar and a crowd of poor tenants above. Among them is Nicole, whose heart is drawn into the Revolution as the people storm the Tuileries and the Terror tightens its hold on the city.
