Short description
This film finds Angélique in a North African Muslim kingdom where she is now part of the Sultan's harem. The first part of the film consist of her angrily refusing to be bedded as well as their trying to literally beat some sense into her. It all seems to go on too long and I was surprised that the Sultan simply didn't have her killed. Late in the film, she finally decides to escape with the help of two Christian prisoners.

What's left behind the scenes

  • A film adaptation of two books from the series of novels about Angelique by Anne and Serge Golon: "Angelique, Indomitable" (final chapters) and the chapter with the same name "Angelique and the Sultan" from the book "Angelique, Rebel" (also: "Angelique, Revolt" / "Angelique in Revolt" / "The Rebel from Poitou").
  • The film crew was received by the first President of Tunisia, Habib Bourguiba himself.
  • Many scenes of the film were shot in Tunisia, for example, in the city of Sidi Bou Said, particularly in the palace of Baron Rudolf d'Erlange, around the Ribat in the city of Monastir, in the amphitheater of El Jem, in the Gulf of La Marsa, and so on.
  • The actress who played the role of the Sultan's main wife, Leila, Vilma Lindamar, and the actor who played the Sultan, Ali Ben Ayed, were actually married in real life.
  • The film is an adaptation of two books from the series of novels about Angélique by Anne and Serge Golon: “Indomitable Angélique” (final chapters) and the chapter of the same name, “Angélique and the Sultan,” from the book “Rebellious Angélique” (also: “The Defiant Angélique”/“Angélique in Revolt”/“The Rebel of Poitou”).
