the man ( gaston modot ) and the young girl ( lya lys ) go through the film consume by passion for each other . they long to be together but their moment together be constantly interrupt . the film be strew together with imagery and come to a halt after an hour . do the lover find happiness . the film start interestingly with footage of scorpion but you soon realize that it all a pretentious piece of nonsense . it make a a silent film with occasional dialogue and it have a non stop soundtrack playing that at one point be so irritating that you will turn the sound down and want to watch it a a silent film . the continuous drum roll must have drive cinema audience mad . there be some genuinely funny moment and eg and when the man kick a dog and when he knock over a blind man . unfortunately and this humour be carry out in the name of art so it just pseudo nonsense . the film be crap .
