Summary:

The most recent work of Sarah Gubara before assisting her father on his large scale production of The Miserable was this tragic drama concerning a very poor man who marries a wealthy woman and the disharmony that is generated by mutual misunderstandings that are difficult to disentangle. The man is soon engulfed in a tidal wave of jealousy that drives him to the brink of insanity and murder. The film depicts a theme common to the elder Gubara’s work in which certain strict social definitions finally contribute to a loss of the senses and finally deranged exile.
