“Manhandled” is a 1924 American silent film that follows the story of a woman named Helen who finds herself caught in a web of deceit and danger.

Helen, a young and innocent woman, is wrongfully accused of stealing a valuable necklace. She’s forced to flee her home, becoming a fugitive in the city, desperate to clear her name. Along her journey, she encounters various characters, including a mysterious man who offers her help but might have ulterior motives.

The film dives into themes of injustice, manipulation, and the resilience of the human spirit. Helen, initially naive and vulnerable, discovers strength within herself as she fights for her freedom and seeks to expose the true culprit.

“Manhandled” is a thrilling and suspenseful film that showcases the power of silent cinema to convey emotions and tell a compelling story through visuals and gestures. It’s a classic example of a femme fatale film, with a strong female protagonist determined to overcome adversity and reclaim her innocence.
