Danish Silent Film "Mormonens Offer" (A Victim of the Mormens) starring Valdemer Psilander and Clara Wieth (Clara Pontipoppidan) was written by Alfred Kjerulf and directed by August Blom. It is not only a suspense thriller typical of the Danish genre, but was controversial for its anti-religious message or perhaps propaganda. Author Peter Cowie relates that Valdemar Psilander frequently appeared under the direction of August Blom and had become a "household name" in Europe before haing a heart attack at the age of thirty three.
Peter Cowie, in his volume Scandinavian Cinema, looks to the historiography of the film by noting that Ron Mottram had analyyzed the films made by August Blom when most prolific, between 1910-1914. Cowie writes, "Mottram also emphasizes the audacity of Blom's approach to his subject matter...he paints a lurid picture of the perils awaiting those who succomb to the blandishments of 'The Church of the Latter Day Saints'."
