The film "Prisoner of Honor" tells the true story of the Dreyfus Affair, a scandal in late 19th century France that led to the wrongful imprisonment of a Jewish French Captain, Dreyfus, on Devil's Island. Colonel Picquart, played by Richard Dreyfuss, is tasked with justifying Dreyfus' sentence, but instead uncovers evidence that the real spy is a member of the French General staff, and that Dreyfus was a scapegoat.
