Paris, France: 1860s. Whole neighborhoods reduced to ashes. By order of Emperor Napoleon III, Baron Haussman has set into motion a series of large-scale renovations that will alter the face of Paris, molding it into a 'modern city.' The reforms will erase generations of history - but in the tumult, one woman will take a stand.
