A genetiscs professor creates an artificial being, which then gets out of control and turns its rage against its "maker". This melodrama about genetic engineering, experiments on people and heredity looks for the answer to the question whether humaneness is the result of nature or nurture. (Summer Film School)

Ewers' novel "Alraune" is a natural intersection between the classic tale of the Golem and Mary Shelley's Frankenstein. In Galeen's interpretation, the most dominant aspect of the narrative is the incestuous relationship between Helm's daughter and her creator Wegener, which in and of itself can drive the audience to ecstasy. Every look and movement of Brigitte Helm is something worth living and dying for. Her statuesque profile gives false hopes, her demonic body arouses passion, and her mind can obscure reason.
