Different from the others directed by Richard Oswald ; written by Richard Oswald and Magnus Hirschfeld.
A prosperous man encounters a sleazy blackmailer who discovers that he is gay. Released in 1919, this film is an amazingly frank depiction of a homosexual relationship. Banned at the time of its release, later burned by the Nazis, the film was believed lost for more than forty years.
