Love and treachery are the principal motives in this film. It tells how a Greek abducted the wife of a warrior. The warrior finds her by disguising himself as a dervish. She kills the pasha and taking his ring succeeds in releasing her husband from prison. The woman escapes from the palace by means of a rope, but when the husband attempts to descend he is recognized by the renegade Greek who cuts the rope, dashing the unfortunate man to the rocks below. The photography is good, but this reviewer doesn't think the subject a wise choice. Dramas are to be commended, but a film in which there are unwarranted abductions and murders are quite as well left off the screen. - The Moving Picture World, September 9, 1911
