Synopsis

Set in the victorian streets of London, in 1880. A series of murders are being done in the district of Limehouse. Dan Leno, the most famous actor in town, tries to defend his friend Elizabeth Cree. The young lady faces the possibility of being executed in front of the town, because she is accused of murdering his husband. The death of Elizabeth seems to be granted, but the gossip of the people about these mysterious crimes, make people think that the actual murderer is a golem. To solve the uncertain crimes, the police will put the detective Kildare in charge to solve them. Nothing is what it seems and everybody is suspicious, and he has got a secret. Directed by Juan Carlos Medina and written by Jane Goldman.
