The Indian Tomb
Critic's Choice Spotlight: Jordan Raup • Classics, Romance, Thriller
This 4K restoration of The Indian Tomb is presented as it was originally created in 1959. It is a product of its time and contains cultural and racial depictions that viewers may find offensive.
After fleeing from Chandra (Walther Reyer), the Maharaja of Eschnapur, the doomed lovers Harald Berger (Paul Hubschmid) and Seetha (Debra Paget) are rescued by sympathetic desert villagers, only to be later given up for ransom. Seetha is captured and sent back to Eschnapur, where she must perform a death-defying temple dance to prove her innocence. Meanwhile, Chandra’s half-brother, Ramigani (René Deltgen), incites a revolt against the Maharaja and uses both Berger and Seetha as pawns in his plot to seize the throne.
