My Six Convicts is the true story of a prison psychologist (John Beal) and his attempts to get through to his incarcerated patients. While dealing with serious issues, the film was created in comedic form. While the film is true to the overall spirit of the book, dramatic license was taken with the adaptation and certain events (e.g., the failed prison break and the resulting death of an innocent inmate) are fictional and were created solely to add dramatic elements to the film.

Victorio est un vieux musicien-marionnettiste perturbé par une expérience personnelle malheureuse. Aussi, ne cesse-t-il de commettre maladresse sur maladresse. Enfin, le voila qui s'adresse, dans sa loge, à un portrait de jeune femme comme s'il s'agissait d'un être vivant. En dépit d'une réelle empathie, le directeur de la troupe choisit de s'en séparer. Il le maintient néanmoins comme veilleur de nuit. Un soir, justement, alors que le spectacle est terminé et le théâtre vidé, Victorio surprend un jeune homme en train de jouer du piano in petto. Charmé, le vieil homme le prend en amitié et se dispose à lui enseigner son art. Quelque temps plus tard, Victorio découvre une photo de la nouvelle poupée-vedette : elle ressemble au portrait de l'adolescente qu'il chérit avec tant d'émotion. Indigné, il pénètre sans ménagement dans l'atelier du sculpteur et dérobe le modèle qui a été utilisé pour créer la marionnette. "Nous partirons loin, là où personne ne se souviendra de nos crimes", marmonne-t-il.
