In a strange world not unlike our own, a beautiful opera singer draws important men to her like moths to a flame, basking in the attention of her admirers. Among them is a young scientist. When she mocks him, he leaves her house with the declared intention to kill himself…
Never stop hunting, because you don’t know what you’ll find. This little-known masterwork, rescued from the flames and now in gorgeous HD, is a high-water mark of silent cinema: a melodrama with sci-fi flavor, a visual tour-de-force, and a shockingly advanced work of modern art.
