In 1815 France, Jean Valjean, "Prisoner 24601", is released on parole by guard Javert after 19 years hard labor in prison for stealing bread ("Work Song (Look Down)"). Marked by his yellow ticket of leave ("On Parole"), Valjean is shunned and cannot find decent work until the Bishop of Digne offers him shelter.
