La última avanzada (1935)
Un bravo oficial británico, Michael Andrews (Grant), es capturado por un grupo de kurdos rebeldes. Uno de sus captores resulta ser John Stevenson (Rains), un inglés que lleva años viviendo en el desierto. Tras liberar a Andrews, Stevenson le revela sus intenciones: salvar a los armenios, aliados de los ingleses, de la muerte a manos de las fuerzas turcas. Su plan consiste en trasladar a un lugar seguro a toda la población armenia atravesando el desierto. Andrews le acompaña en el viaje y no tarda en interesarse por Lya (Burke), la sensual esposa del jefe de la tribu Armenia.
