The Right of Youth
Court huntsman, Søtoft, is courting his daughter Else’s lady-in-waiting, Miss Engelke. That’s why it’s a bit of a punch in the stomach when, late one evening, he discovers his son Ove in close contact with her. Chamberlain von Plessen, who had been gossiping to Søtoft and is himself spying on the young couple, is going to set fire to the room they’re in. The hurt Søtoft wants to leave the young couple to their cruel fate – that is until he discovers that it’s not Engelke, but his daughter Else, who is trapped in the flames with her brother.

🎬 MovieFinder's Take
The film constructs its drama around a classic love triangle, complicated by family bonds and class prejudice. It relies on expressive silent acting and a steady escalation of visual tension to explore jealousy, vengeance, and paternal remorse.
What lingers after the final frame is the chilling cost of a rash decision and the intense, almost thriller-like pacing of this early melodrama. — MovieFinder Editorial
Director: August Blom
Best Watched
Watch in a quiet, dimly lit room to fully absorb the tense, silent atmosphere.
