In Pompeii in 79 AD Glaucus and Jone are in love with each other. Arbax, the Egyptian High Priest, is determined to conquer her. Glaucus buys the blind slave Nydia who is mishandled by her owner. Nydia falls in love with him and asks Arbax for his help. He gives her a potion to make Glaucus fall in love with her.
The film was released in France and Italy in 1950. The film considerably simplified the plot of Lytton's novel, and there was some alteration of the names of the principal characters: Glaucus became Lysias, and Ione became Hélène; Nidia was made the victim of Arbax rather than an agent of his defeat.
