Lejla

Directed by Knud Nathansen

FRAGMENT | Lejla, a frivolous dressage rider, rides around with suitors and dances with death. Count Claes turns a deaf ear to all the warnings about Lejla’s behaviour. Claes only has eyes for Lejla’s beauty, but is blind to her rejections. Only when Claes offers to settle her debt does she become interested in marriage. Has Claus actually married the cat in the bag? (Stumfilm.dk)
