About the Movie

The Day of the White Lotus Story: In the fall of 1874 a New York journalist Henry Olcott decided to take a trip to Vermont. He wants to investigate the mysterious apparitions of the ghostly spirits in a remote Vermont homestead. On the train he meets a peculiar woman, who calls herself Madame Blavatsky. Madame is also going to Vermont, and claims to be a messenger of the Great Mahatmas of Tibet and a member of the The Hermetic Brotherhood of Luxor. Because in the 19th century Tibet was closed to the European and American visitors, and The Hermetic Brotherhood of Luxor was still a secret organization, Madam's revelations sound especially interesting. Madame Blavatsky tells Henry that the connection with the Great Mahatmas of Tibet allowed her to obtain some supernatural powers.
