Synopsis
In the year 5053, young aristocrat Albert de Morcerf visits the lunar city of Luna with his friend Franz, hoping to find something that can break the boredom of his privileged life. There he meets the mysterious Count of Monte Cristo, a wealthy and magnetic man who takes a particular interest in Albert.
Fascinated, Albert introduces the Count to his family and the aristocratic circles of Paris, never realizing the meeting was no accident. Behind the Count’s charm and fortune lies a revenge plan built from years of betrayal and imprisonment, with the families around Albert at its center. As the Count moves deeper into French society, old secrets begin destroying the present, leaving Albert torn between admiration for the man he trusted and the truth of what he intends to do to everyone Albert loves.
