The Hunchback of Notre Dame

Impact! Power! Fire! Pathos! Drama!

Set in Paris in 1482, the story follows Frollo, Chief Justice under the benevolent King Louis XI, whose infatuation with Esmeralda, a young Romani girl, turns sinister. Quasimodo, Frollo's protégé and the bell-ringer of Notre Dame, lives a peaceful life among the bells high in the cathedral. His world is upended when the magistrate involves him in his schemes to free himself from what he believes is Esmeralda's devilish spell.
