The Auteur's Selection In the Shadow of Sadounah: Cult Guide

The Sadounah Phenomenon

As William Le Queux's most celebrated work, it defines to create a dialogue between the viewer and the artistic bravery.

Sadunah, the Dancer, has a daughter whom she wishes to defend from worldly perils, whom she wishes to shield from the life the mother had led. Pursuing her sole ambition, Sadunah marries a rich financier and when he gets into serious trouble and it would seem that he will lose all his money, she tempts him to commit a terrible crime. But she, too, is ready to sacrifice all for mother love. The call coming, Sadunah, at whose feet the artistic world has paid homage, gives her life for her child.
