A new, large-scale film adaptation by director Fred Cavaillé will be released in the fall of 2026.

Spanning a broad timeframe (from 1815 to 1832 and the brutal suppression of the June Uprising in Paris), the work is a historical drama that draws readers into the current events of the time. Victor Hugo criticizes the policies of the Restoration era, which led to the poverty of the majority of the population. He imbues his characters with republican sentiments, making the novel revolutionary and anti-monarchist.

Among the "Les Miserables" are Jean Valjean, sentenced to twenty years of hard labor for stealing bread for his starving family; little Cosette, transformed into a charming young woman; and the cheerful street urchin Gavroche. The confrontation between the Parisian criminal underworld and the police, the disputes between political parties and barricade battles, the monastic laws and the church system—all this provides a brilliant portrait of French society in the early 19th century.

Victor Hugo used biographies of real historical figures and authentic events to create his characters and plot, lending the book additional depth and realism.
