The film is considered a lost film.[2]

Transcription

Plot

Omar the Tentmaker (Post) becomes an outcast because of his radical writings and improved calendar (Omar wrote the Iranian first solar calendar circa A.D. 1073). Omar's wife Shireen (Faire), whom he secretly married and impregnated, is desired by the Shah (Noah Beery), who has her brought to his harem. She repulses the Shah and is thrown into prison, where she gives birth to a daughter. The daughter Little Shireen is smuggled out of the prison and brought to Omar Khayyam, although he does not know the baby is his daughter.

Omar has been wandering about in a rage. He is arrested for harboring a Christian Crusader (Flynn). When Omar is about to be tortured, his wife, who has finally escaped from prison, recognizes him and sends for the Grand Vizier, who is a former associate of Omar's. Omar is freed and finally finds happiness.[3]
