The Cocaine Rush

1925 · 18 min

A giddy, fragmentary silent comedy that drifts like a fever dream through a city of oddballs and absurd chases.

Directed by
Carl Alstrup
Overview
FRAGMENT | The eccentric Tom Nigel strolls through Copenhagen. Psychedelic dreams and grotesque coincidences propel him from one insane situation to the next. Via a personal ad he never submitted, he meets a mysterious woman with giant teeth and cannot get rid of her again. She chases him through the city while he tries to ingratiate himself with a beautiful woman who keeps crossing his path. At a café, he overhears a conversation about a cocaine temple and promptly sets out to find it. The beginning and end are missing. (Stumfilm.dk)
