The film"s page
Ivan Orloff, who beats his wife and trades her as a slave, leaves Eastern Europe to settle in the United States, a land of freedom. There, he has a bitter experience of respect for women, and takes four lessons of "Americanism".
Note: Feminist and incredibly modern, this film also evokes the conditions of integration of foreigners in the USA (such as Alice Guy) who are under social and economic pressure.
