"Exciting suspense melodrama." -- Los Angeles Times
Film noir, a classic film style of the ´40s and ´50s, is noted for its dark themes, stark camera angles and high-contract lighting. Comprising many of Hollywood´s finest films, film noir tells realistic stories about crime, mystery, femmes fatales and moral conflict.
Victoria Kowelska (Valentina Cortese) has lived through World War II bombings and relocation camps, and has finally emigrated to San Francisco Bay. Now she should be blissfully happy with her devoted husband (Richard Basehart) in their mansion overlooking the San Francisco Bay. But Victoria is not who she seems, her child belongs to someone else, and her husband and housekeeper are frightening her half to death.
