Synopsis

A lazy and easy-going dad is dreaming. In his dream, he plays around in the Dragon Palace Cafe under the sea, buys a treasure box as a gift, but is coerced by the demon that appears from it into becoming its servant. Originally a silent movie, this 1942 talkie version is a remix including the recording of a film interpreter.
