Film Description

From the Babylonian era to the present day, 4 stories of intolerance and inhumanity interweave to form a typically inventive Griffith spectacle that cuts back and forth between the four stories - the Modern Story, the Judaean Story, the French Story and the Babylonian Story, while Gish rocks the cradle as the symbol of Eternal Motherhood. One of the landmark films of the silent era.

Review by D.W. Griffith on

"Each story shows how hatred and intolerance, through the ages, have battled against love and charity. Therefore you will find our play turning from one of the four stories to another, as the common theme unfolds in each"
