Intoxication

SINOPSIS

Intoxication (German: Rausch) is a 1919 German silent drama film directed by Ernst Lubitsch and starring Asta Nielsen, Alfred Abel and Karl Meinhardt. It was based on the play Brott och brott (There are crimes and crimes) by August Strindberg, which was later remade as the 1928 film Sin. Lubitsch was loaned out by UFA to the smaller Argus-Film for the production. Only a 13-minute fragment of the film, kept in the Bundesarchiv in Germany, is known to have survived.
