Description
The Count of Monte Cristo presses deeper into the garden at Auteuil despite Bertuccio’s desperate warnings.
Under a moonlit sky, the steward tries to steer his master away from one particular spot, finally revealing that it is where a man fell. Monte Cristo dismisses Bertuccio’s fears, but the steward insists that the terrible truth can no longer be hidden.
The garden becomes the stage for a long-buried confession.
