Eulis Atjih (Indonesia, 1927)

Eulis Atjih is a 1927 film from the Dutch East Indies (modern-day Indonesia); it was the second feature film produced in the country, after Loetoeng Kasaroeng in 1926. The silent film follows the lives of a native Indonesian family sent into poverty by the husband’s splurging. Eulis Atjih was a commercial success in the Indies, but failed in international markets.
