Sokół

The protagonist travels to visit his dying brother, a provincial notary who has married his former lover. There, the two brothers—rivals for the same woman—become embroiled in a sordid tavern brawl, after which the notary dies. That same night, his wife falls into the embrace of her former lover in a darkened room, illuminated by a shaft of candlelight from the candles burning beside the dead man's catafalque. But the adulterous woman soon meets her own fate, dying in a railway accident. There are no surviving copies of the film.

At the age of sixteen, Maria Łączyńska marries the seventy-year-old Count Walewski. Napoleon approaches with his army, and Maria greets him in Błonie near Warsaw. At a ball she dances with him. Yet the heart is not idle. The Emperor seeks to win her over, sending her precious jewels. At first Walewska does not know what to do. Eventually she agrees to a private meeting with Napoleon and goes to the castle. She separates from her husband and from then on remains constantly by the side of the great commander. Any disagreements between them were dispelled by the hope of the birth of young Napoleon, who was destined to take his father’s place in the continuing struggle for the freedom of nations.
