Der weisse Pfau Synopsis

Lord Cross is a respected and always very serious gentleman. In society he is therefore called "the man without a laugh". One evening, when he and his snobbish girlfriend from the British upper class visited the variety show "Zur Goldenen Kugel" in the somewhat disreputable London district of Whitechapel, in which its director Navratil tried to make the audience laugh with a comic buffo, the Lord's eyes fell immediately on a young gypsy girl. She is called Maryla and dances to the violin.

Into the Light Synopsis

The Spider, who lusts after The Girl, makes a bargain with the stepfather and takes her to the city where, kept prisoner, she is soon broken in health and spirit. Cast out and near death, she is taken in by The Boy. Following the demise of The Spider, The Boy takes her to church, where he prays, and after many hours she is restored to health.
