AKA Genoveffa di Brabante.
"Your in my hands now. There is no one here to save you except myself..."
Count Treviri (Alberto Lupo) marries Genevieve (María José Alfonso), before he is summoned to go on a crusade. Treviri leaves immediately, entrusting the safety of Genevieve and his estate to Golo (Stephen Forsyth), his most trusted man. Golo soon becomes dictatorial, extorting taxes out of the peasants. He also has eyes for the fair maid and when she spurns his advances has her tried for adultery and sentenced to death. Fortunately she is helped by one of the guards who convinces Golo that he has killed her, but she is left with her newly born son in the woods to fend for herself. Meanwhile the Count has been captured by the Saracens. Will they ever find their way back the castle and each others arms?
A run of the mill peplum, with only Stephen Forsyth standing out as the evil Golo.
