Critical review.
Of the "Sheik" films of the 1920s, the plot of "A Son of the Sahara" was among the more racist in that Barbara, the European woman, completely rejects any romantic interest in Raoul until the very end of the film where it is established that he lacks any Arab ancestry and is fully French.
