About In the Thrall of Opium
A deeply indebted count blackmails his old school friend to rescind his engagement to the millionaire's daughter Lizzie so that he himself can get access to the family's fortune through a relationship with her. He initially manages to get the girl, but will he get his hands on the money that he so desperately needs? (stumfilm.dk)
