August Blom, Denmark, 1912
DK/FeatureAdaptions, Drama, Crime filmSilent films
Students Lind and Beck are on a hiking trip in North Zealand. They enjoy the summer sun, eat apples by the roadside and soon come across the idyllic estate Sølyst, where they fall in love with the estate owner’s two beautiful daughters. Soon, however, dark clouds loom on the horizon: the simple-minded farmer they gave a shilling on the way is in fact an escaped criminal named Black Carl, and he has sinister plans.
The film is based on a play by Jens Chr. Hostrup from 1848.
