Old Mother Savage unleashes fire to avenge her son
A French peasant woman known as Mother Savage loses both husband and son to war. After learning her son Victor was killed, she arms herself with rifles and lures four German soldiers into her home. She burns the cottage and, with the dying fire, declares to a German officer that she caused the blaze and the deaths. She is later killed by guards as she clings to her evidence.
