The Drama of the St. Mary's Church Tower

The Drama of the St. Mary's Church Tower (Polish:Dramat Wieży Mariackiej) is a 1913 Polish silent drama film directed by Wiktor Biegański and starring Włodzimierz Kosiński, Helena Górska and Władysław Puchalski. The film was Bieganski's debut as a director. It was filmed in Lvov and Krakow, then part of the Austro-Hungarian Empire. It is likely that the film and Bieganski's next production, The Adventures of Anton, were never put on general release.[1] Elements of the film still survive.[2]
