The film was shot in Brisbane and is considered a lost film.[2] PlotA female detective tries to bust a crime ring operating in the city and in the sapphire mines of Anakie. The gang kill old man "Dawn", the sapphire king, and steal his gems. The detective's sister, a young nurse, is accused of the crime and imprisoned. The detective tries to clear her sister's name. There are two romantic subplots.[3] Cast
ProductionIt was the first entirely locally made Brisbane film. Local buildings featured heavily, including Boggo Road Gaol. It was shot over three months, in between June and August 1921.[3] Scenes from the movie were enacted at a recital.[4] ReceptionThe film was poorly reviewed and seems to have flopped at the box office.[2] The Astrolat Film Company announced plans to make another movie, Whose Baby? but it appears never to have been shot.[5] Star Thora Galli later sued Astrolat for ₤200 in unpaid wages. Her husband Leo worked on the movie.[6] References1. ^{{cite news |url=http://nla.gov.au/nla.news-article20509124 |title=Advertising. |newspaper=The Brisbane Courier |date=20 October 1921 |accessdate=28 July 2012 |page=2 |publisher=National Library of Australia}} 2. ^1 Andrew Pike and Ross Cooper, Australian Film 1900–1977: A Guide to Feature Film Production, Melbourne: Oxford University Press, 1998, 109. 3. ^1 2 {{cite news |url=http://nla.gov.au/nla.news-article20513143 |title=Town Topics. |newspaper=The Brisbane Courier |date=22 October 1921 |accessdate=28 July 2012 |page=13 |publisher=National Library of Australia}} 4. ^{{cite news |url=http://nla.gov.au/nla.news-article20516764 |title=Advertising. |newspaper=The Brisbane Courier |date=26 July 1921 |accessdate=28 July 2012 |page=2 |publisher=National Library of Australia}} 5. ^{{cite news |url=http://nla.gov.au/nla.news-article20521826 |title=Advertising. |newspaper=The Brisbane Courier |date=2 December 1921 |accessdate=28 July 2012 |page=2 |publisher=National Library of Australia}} 6. ^1 {{cite news |url=http://nla.gov.au/nla.news-article20568894 |title=A "MOVIE" CASE. |newspaper=The Brisbane Courier |date=2 September 1922 |accessdate=28 July 2012 |page=15 |publisher=National Library of Australia}} External links
