The Pawns Count

(1918)

Germany and Austria are at war with England and allies. American beauty Pamela Van Teyl, supposedly neutral about the war, can't help but admire the great passion and pride German-American Oscar Fischer shows for the Fatherland. In contrast, Pamela is quite annoyed by Englishman Mr. Lutchester's deliberate lack of interest and involvement in the war. A kidnapping goes wrong. Each individual takes part in a fascinating tale of espionage, political intrigue and perhaps high treason. Each works for or against other until true characters and allegiances are revealed.--Submitted by Nassrin Moghadam
