Inyaah (Jungle Goddess) Synopsis

Two white explorers, American Tom Dawes and Scotsman Sandy Kemp, travel to the Dyak villages of Borneo, where they hear stories of a primitive, remote tribe, that is ruled by a "white goddess." Intrigued, Tom and Sandy travel upriver to the village and are captured by the hostile tribesmen. Because they have entered a sacred place, the men are sentenced to death, but are saved when they hear a woman's voice say that they are to be made blood brothers of the Dyaks. Later, they see the young white woman who is treated as a goddess by the tribe. She and Tom are attracted to each other and she dances a native dance for him. After her dance, she relates her background: After emigrating from Russia to Borneo, her mother and father start a small rubber plantation. The happiness of the young family is shattered one afternoon when a cruel planter named Slade kidnaps her mother. When her father comes to his wife's aid, Slade and his native workers kill him, then take the wife and the little girl, Ileana, to Slade's house. After being raped repeatedly by Slade, the woman becomes deranged. Slade eventually lets her run away, followed by little Ileana, and the two find refuge in the jungle. The deranged mother spends her time plotting revenge and begins to realize her dream when she sees a native snake charmer. She then spends days making a flute and charming the jungle animals with her tune. Her music provokes the beasts of the jungle to kill Slade's men, and eventually the planter himself. Ileana then tells Tom that after Slade's death, she and her mother were adopted by the tribe. Her deranged mother still lives with her. When it is time for Tom and Sandy to leave, Tom asks Ileana to accompany them, but she does not want to leave her mother, who would be unable to live in civilization. Just before the boat leaves, a fire breaks out in the village and Ileana's mother is trapped and burned to death. With no reason to stay in the village, Ileana agrees to return with Tom to civilization.
