Henry B Walthall, famous for the Confederate he played subsequently in "Birth of a Nation" plays a grandiose man and owner of a castle. He is in love with another woman and is in conflict with an interloper who is trying to raid his castle; he is sealed from any physical contact, surviving through hope, love and courage - However way they are integrated, it leaves on an open ending notwithstanding that.

Albeit it lacks suspense, the movie ventures into an amazing Period and Foreign type of Genre, with elements that revive the early cinema novelty.
