This is a region-free 2-DVD-R set without case or artwork.Silent with English inter-title translations. This is a VHS transfer. Because of its 5 hour, 41-minute running time, this serial is split over two DVD's.The film begins with explorer Jacques d'Athys (René Cresté) returning home to his family from Indochina. He brings along Tih Minh (Mary Harald), a lovely young girl that he picked up in Laos. He and his loyal servant Placide (Georges Biscot) soon involve themselves in international intrigue that includes jewel thieves-cum-spies who render their victims amnesiacs, a treasure map written in an ancient Asian hand, a literally hypnotic Hindu villain, an insane asylum, and a rock avalanche. In the midst of the madness Tih Minh herself becomes a structuring principle, as many of the film's 12 episodes involve the villains kidnapping her and her subsequent escape or rescue.
