Jean Valjean, an upright young man, was sentenced to decades of hard labor for stealing a piece of bread. After escaping from prison, he decided to turn over a new leaf. Javert, the prison guard who guarded Jean Valjean, firmly believed that Jean Valjean was a criminal for a time and would be a criminal for the rest of his life, and vowed to arrest him wherever he went. In the twinkling of an eye, over the years, Jean Valjean became an incognito squire celebrity respected by the citizens. By chance, he met a desperate poor woman, Fantine, who was an innocent factory worker, but was tortured to death by life and human malice. On her deathbed, she entrusted her youngest daughter Cosette to the care of Jean Valjean. Just as Jean Valjean took in Cosette, his whereabouts and true identity were discovered by Javert. With Cosette, Jean Valjean dodged Javert and made every effort to create a warm home for the little girl.
