Eugene wants to get on in the world. So he has come to Paris, where the streets teem with chancers, criminals and social climbers. When he finds a place to stay at a shabby boarding house, he sees a potential plan to make a fortune: the two beautiful, aristocratic women who come at night to visit the lonely old lodger Goriot.
