While visiting his social club one evening, Victorian gentleman Phileas Fogg is drawn into a wager that it is impossible to travel around the world in eighty days. He is determined to prove his colleagues wrong and collect his GBP20,000. Accompanied by his faithful and resourceful manservant, Passepartout, Fogg leaves London that night and embarks upon an extraordinary adventure that includes saving a young Indian woman from being sacrificed on a funeral pyre and escaping an attack by Sioux warriors, all the while being dogged by a detective who mistakes Fogg for a bank robber. Will the travellers make it back to London in time to win the bet?
