Summary
In the shadow of a rigid, ascetic upbringing, Maude finds herself the ward of a prominent anti-alcoholic league president—a man whose life is dedicated to the suppression of fermented ecstasies. Her path seems predestined, paved with the clinical stability of her engagement to a respectable doctor. However, this bourgeois tranquility is violently disrupted by the arrival of a nomadic Gypsy violinist, a figure who embodies the very intoxication Maude’s guardian seeks to eradicate. This musician, fueled by a primal obsession, orchestrates a daring abduction, neutralizing the doctor through physical restraint and whisking Maude away to a secluded villa. The narrative unfolds as a fever dream of class collision and sensory awakening, where the silence of the screen is filled by the phantom melodies of a violin that promises both liberation and ruin.
