About the show

In a Paris photographic studio, the proprietor Angèle learns that the Tsar is coming to have his portrait taken. Revolutionaries seize the studio and disguise members of their gang as Angèle and her staff, hiding a gun in the camera to kill the Tsar; after the police arrive, the gang escapes, and the Tsar finally has his photograph taken by the real staff.
