The Garden of Allah (1927) is a film directed by Rex Ingram and starring his wife, actress Alice Terry. It was the second version of the Robert Hichens novel The Garden of Allah, which had been filmed by the Selig company in 1916 with Helen Ware and would be filmed again in 1936 with Marlene Dietrich and Charles Boyer. The film was shot at a studio in Nice, France, and the desert exteriors were filmed in North Africa.
Father Adrien (Iván Petrovich), a monk at the Trappist monastery of Notre Dame d'Afrique in Algeria, abandons his vows and escapes to the desert, where he meets and rescues Domini (Alice Terry).
