The "Dancing Dervish" has been a familiar character to readers of far Eastern tales, although the Western mind cannot well grasp the significance of the endless revolutions on one toe which seems to be the favorite religious rite of the Dervish. This film is uproariously funny. It concerns a white man, presumably a Frenchman, who scoffs lightly at the dancing of a Dervish, and the latter in revenge places a curse upon the stranger, under which the Frenchman dances the Dervish dance, in and out of season, morning, noon and night. The curse following him in his travels, a series of side-splitting situations arise. His friends try to cure him, but to no avail, and he breaks out into this dance at the most inopportune moments.
