A direct descendant of the legendary Zorro, an elderly gentleman has an only son named Raimondo (Walter Chiari), in whom there is no trace of the original pride of his ancestors.

Chased out of the house he decides to enter the convent, but on the way he meets a powerful gentleman who conspires against the Governor and, involved in the melee between them and his opponents, Raimondo is hit in the head.

Raimondo immediately recovers the daring ancient spirits: he transforms himself into a skilled swordsman - as well as an ardent seducer - and, by throwing himself against the lord's opponents, he routs them and defeats them.

Raimondo carries out the task, to the point of falling in love with the girl and passing victorious through the limitless traps set by his opponents.

With her intervention, the young man makes the duke's cause triumph, who, finally appointed governor, renounces her to Estrella, granting her in marriage to the heroic Raimondo.
