Oberst Chabert

About the show

Presumed dead after being buried at the Battle of Eylau, Colonel Chabert survives and returns to Paris ten years later to reclaim his property and wife Rosine, who has remarried. Rosine first denies knowing him, then admits the truth; after she rejects him, Chabert shoots himself. Rosine realizes she loved him, takes poison, and dies beside his body.
