"Helen of Troy" is a free adaptation of Homer's work "The Iliad". The film was released in two separate parts: The Rape of Helen and The Fall of Troy. It was kept practically in oblivion until an almost complete copy was found in Lausanne, Switzerland. This copy was completed with several materials available from other forgotten copies in the archives of Rome, Madrid and Moscow.
The 2-disc DVD presents for the first time an unjustly forgotten classic epic of the German silent cinema in a newly reconstructed and meticulously restored version. This provided a unique opportunity for the world of silent movie fans to appreciate this German super production after it suffered through 80 years of neglect.
