Film Synopsis
A family from the east is adjusting to a new life in Europe.
Moncef, the father, tries to remain faithful to his past by preserving
the old traditions of his people. His daughter Cobra pays lip
service to her people's customs, but she is easily diverted from her
traditions by the opportunities her new life offers her. Her one
wish is to get married as soon as she can. Cobra's young employer
is madly in love with her, but she wants to choose her own husband, as
her mother did...
In the 1940s, the shadowy, skewed visual style of 1920s German expressionism was taken up by directors of American thrillers and psychological dramas, creating that distinctive film noir look.
