    • An Artist, Richard Rhys, is suspected of being responsible for the Ripper crimes in Victorian London. Through a twist of fate he is introduced to a wealthy philanthropic socialite, Victoria Thornton. Her compassion changes his heart and inspires his artistic talents. His charm awakens her dormant sensual desire and their great love affair begins. He crosses paths with an inventor who has created a prototype of the first motion picture camera. This inventor is being paid by a wealthy doctor to collect images of murder victims. A prisoner of his class, Richard is redeemed by the love of Victoria who rescues him from prosecution and the mean streets of London.
