Sunshine

When Joy, the daughter of the actress Gloria Grey, is six years old, her mother realises that the theatrical life is contaminating the child. She confides in Mark Halliday, an actor who has helped her in the past and who proposes marriage. She tells him that she is still married and - in a series of flash-backs - relates her story.

Directed by Maurits Binger, Bernard Edwin Doxat-Pratt, Sunshine leans on a strong ensemble — Annie Bos, Adelqui Migliar, Renee Spiljar — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.

The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about drama titles of 1920.
