One day Gypsies arrive in the area and with them comes the beautiful Daniela, whom an old Gypsy woman once had brought to the camp - nobody knew where from. Daniela loves Ondřej, but a deeper love is awoken in her by a chance encounter with Dr. Palm, who has taken to wandering in the woods since the violent death of his beloved. The doctor, too, is quite intrigued by Daniela. Ondřej steals a silver dress for Daniela from the doctor's house but is shot and wounded by a policeman. Daniela, distraught, brings Dr. Palm to Ondřej, but there is nothing he can do and the young lad dies. In Palm's villa Daniela sees that the silver dress once belonged to Palm's late wife. She decides to leave both the doctor and the camp, and departs with the old Gypsy woman. On the way they meet the policeman who recognises the silver dress, takes her for a thief, and leads her back to the doctor. The latter does not condemn Daniela. He has fallen in love with her and wants her to stay with him. She becomes his wife, but no-one ever finds out the secret of her origin. That, the old Gypsy woman takes to her grave.

The television premiere of Black Flame extends the experience of several phenomena simultaneously. Leaving aside the Roma theme, which has been interspersed here and there throughout the existence of Czech cinema, this is a silent film to which sound was added, a fairly common concept in literature, but in practice, few people have seen it. There are also two interesting personalities of silent and sound film - Jarmila Lhotová and V. Ch. Vladimírov. Lhotová's unshakeable charm dominated for four years with director Krňanský. Regarding Vladimírov, his star as Suzanne Marwille's permanent partner in Weteb film had long since faded by the time Black Flame came about and his lover-type character had turned into a pure uncouthness, this time without any psychological background. We also have J.W. Speerger, who was excellent in the lead roles, and he was lucky, so it is mainly thanks to him and Lhotová that the final experience of this film is worth it. The cherry on top is the now-classic performances of Pištěk, Plachta, and Mrázek. It could have been even better if Bronislava Livia hadn't been missing from the prologue, but what can you do? The bottom line is that the intertitles and dialogue come together perfectly.
