Le connétable Thibault fait emprisonner le poète vagabond François Villon, lorsqu'il apprend que ce dernier est au courant de la conspiration qu'il mène avec le Duc de Bourgogne pour renverser Louis XI. Katherine, la pupille du roi, rend visite à Villon et, apprenant son histoire de trahison, le fait libérer pour qu'il puisse avoir des preuves de ses accusations. Pour cela, Villon se rend à la taverne qui est le siège du complot et y récite son poème "Si j'étais roi" (If I were king). Le roi, qui était dans la taverne sous un déguisement, décide de nommer le poète connétable à la place de Thibault, qui a déserté pour rejoindre les Bourguignons. Mais le roi lui impose une semaine pour gagner l'amour de Catherine, à défaut de quoi il sera pendu. En sept jours, Villon bat l'armée du duc, déjoue un complot contre le roi. À la fin de la semaine, il est en train de bravement monter sur l'échafaud quand Katherine lui proclame son amour et ainsi le libère.
