When the most perfect war machine ever known to mankind suffers its first defeat at the hands of a simple drummer boy, Napoleon sends six of his toughest mercenaries on a single mission: to bring back his head.

The drummer boy, named Bruc after the site of the battle, must fight single-handedly to survive and avenge his family.
He becomes a symbol of freedom and hope for his nation, a hero who managed what no one else had ever done before: to defeat the invincible army of Napoleon Bonaparte.
