The Kidnapping Synopsis
Hans has killed the dog of Firmin, a shepherd. Wild with rage, Firmin kidnaps Elsi, Hans' fiancée and locks her up at his home. Hans, a peddler, vows to find the missing girl. This is what he does and he manages, with the help of Mathias, a trader who travels between both villages, to give Elsi a letter. On seeing her, the changeling falls in love at first sight with the young woman. Elsi soon realizes that Mânu, the village idiot, can become her instrument of vengeance.
In the River Synopsis
A mail-order bride arrives at a Maine lumber camp but doesn't like her prospective husband.
"The Kidnapping" holds a slight edge in general audience appreciation, but "In the River" offers its own unique cult appeal.
