In an isolated farm in the desert of the West, a woman is the victim of an obnoxious aggressor, whom she is forced to kill. One of the most beautiful silent films made in the United States by the Swedish director Victor Sjöström. The oppressive climate creates an enduring memory, as does the restless composition of Lilian Gish.

The Wind
(1928)
Victor Sjöström has always made good films but with Lilian Gish he has made a masterpiece.
