Heaven Valley è una città dominata da Denny Richards, il quale esercita il suo potere controllando il corpo di polizia. Ma negli ultimi tempi il dipartimento è sconvolto da una serie di omicidi: cadaveri di poliziotti vengono rinvenuti per le strade, letteralmente fatti a pezzi. Il responsabile di tutto ciò è Adam, che è in cerca di vendetta dopo aver trovato la moglie morta, arsa viva da Denny a causa di un debito non saldato in tempo. L'uomo, corroso dal dolore e dalla rabbia, viene controllato da un demone malvagio, il quale gli promette di portarlo dinanzi a Denny se in cambio divulgherà il suo messaggio di odio e distruzione; per raggiungere il suo fine, il demone ha donato ad Adam una forza sovraumana e poteri soprannaturali, abilità usate per annientare tutti i nemici che si interpongono fra lui e il malavitoso...

Charlie Chaplin entrò a far parte della Keystone Film Company di Mack Sennett alla fine del 1913 dopo essere stato visto nella compagnia di vaudeville itinerante di Fred Karno. Dopo alcuni primi difficili passi, la sua ascesa è stata fulminea: ha realizzato 35 film in un solo anno, dirigendone più della metà e sviluppando il suo personaggio tanto amato, il Vagabondo. Questo straordinario set di quattro dischi, contenente i 34 film di Chaplin Keystone sopravvissuti (incluso il lungometraggio Tillie's Punctured Romance), è il risultato di una collaborazione internazionale di otto anni per ricostruire e restaurare i film tra l'Archivio Nazionale BFI, Cineteca Bologna/L'Immagine Ritrovata e Lobster films, con la collaborazione di UCLA Film and Television Archive, Library of Congress e il sostegno di Association Chaplin.

While silent-film star Charlie Chaplin may have charmed American audiences with the onscreen antics of his lovable "Tramp" character, the actor's private life was marred by a series of public scandals that eventually pushed him into exile. In addition to his penchant for much younger women, Chaplin was unjustly hounded by Senator Joe McCarthy's notorious anti-Communist witch hunts, for which the U.S. revoked his visa in 1952. A bitter and disenchanted Chaplin responded by moving his family to Switzerland, where he remained until his death in 1977. This documentary chronicles Chaplin's life and career during those so-called "forgotten years" (during which he became a prolific and highly respected film-score composer) through previously unreleased archival footage and intimate interviews with his friends and family, including his children Geraldine, Michael, and Eugene.
