An architect travels to the remote city of Eschnapur to oversee some work being done at the bequest of the local Maharajah. Along the way the architect meets and falls in love with a beautiful temple-dancer. The Maharajah also loves this dancer and plans to marry her despite fierce opposition from factions within his own court. The dancer responds to the architect's advances and they flee from Eschnapur but are captured by the Maharajah's soldiers. To save the architect's life, the dancer agrees to marry the Maharajah. This sparks a revolt which is eventually put down. The sadder but wiser Maharajah then allows the architect and the dancer to leave his domain.

| Antagony & EcstasyTim BraytonWhat elevates the films to the status of art-in-genre-clothing, is Lang's taste for lurid color and perfect compositions. |
| Combustible CelluloidJeffrey M. AndersonLang's most open-aired use of color, and wonderful, late-period entertainment. |
| Classic Film and TelevisionMichael E. GrostVisually striking adventure film, in lavish color. |
| User ReviewFabrice AI remember watching this movie in loop as a child. I watched it once a day, sometimes more. It's brilliant aesthetic and spotless cinematography appealed to me along with superb erotic exoticism. A bit Tintin with girls in it. I believe that, until now, this very movie still created what still remains a huge part of my artistic sensitivity. |
| User ReviewJenny JL'histoire n'est franchement pas terrible, mais le film atteint un tel sommet esthétique qu'il ne peut laisser de marbre. On y sent un Lang reposé, qui se laisse (re)séduire par l'un de ses tout premiers projets, et qui nous raconte tel un vieux sage un innocent conte pour enfant. Tout y est sublime. |
| User ReviewAdam BI love Fritz Lang, and this is just a good 1950's adventure film. |
| User ReviewAlexandra LUn classique de mon enfance. Vous vous souvenez, c'est le film qui passait toujours durant le temps des Fêtes à Télé-Québec, après les Ciné-Cadeaux... |
| User ReviewAndrey BA very colorful and and action-packed movie this is, the first part of a dilogy; very entertaining and visually stunning with Lang's trademark penchant for mysteries which are abound in Indian culture and so he utilizes them to the fullest. |

| User ReviewMichael TLong before Lord of the Rings and Grindhouse, Fritz made multi-release films, here a boy's own tale of exoticism and derring do in the East. Clearly this is a very Eurocentric take on The Orient, and made with no contomporary insight into ploitics, but a dashed exciting tale all the same. After a bit of a slow start the picture pops into life about halfway. Great line: "It is indeed flattery for our Indian hospitality that you dare forget yourself so easily". Worth a go, and I wish I had the sequel |
