Storyline:  Prague, Bohemia, 1820. Balduin, a penniless student who rescues Countess Margit from drowning, falls in love but feels unworthy of her status. Ashamed of what he cannot offer, he accepts a pact from the enigmatic Scapinelli, trading his own reflection for wealth. As his shadow double emerges and commits acts he cannot control, Balduin’s hopes for Margit collapse, and the haunting presence of his missing mirror image drives him toward inevitable ruin.
