“A story of love and revenge in the African jungles!”

DramaMystery

A magician seeks vengeance upon the man who paralyzed him and the illegitimate daughter he sired with the magician's wife.

VIBE

A silent film of operatic melodrama, this is a visually striking and intensely unsettling tale of obsession and revenge. Its expressionistic style and exotic setting create a unique, psychotronic atmosphere that lingers long after viewing.
