Live soundtracks by the Soundtracks 2024 Collective with Roberta Sammarelli

Zara, Zazarack and Michael Nash combine their efforts to seize the properties of Doris, a wealthy heiress. The three, a gypsy, a Confederate soldier and the girl’s guardian make up a false will to get their hands on the inheritance money. After organizing a fake seance, they manage to trick young Doris. Michael, however, is gripped by remorse and returns the money back to her. Zara, sent back to Hungary by the police, is joined in her country by Michael, who is now in love with her.
