When Do We Eat?

The film follows Nora, a struggling performer who impersonates Little Eva in a low-quality production of Uncle Tom's Cabin. Her aspirations are thwarted when she faces a series of misadventures, including a sudden end to her stage career and an encounter with the law. After rolling into the town of Wattelville, she becomes intertwined with local characters, including the honest banker James, who unwittingly gets caught up in a poker game that leads to trouble.

As Nora gets involved with two crooks, she uses her cunning impersonation skills to assist in a bank heist. However, her quick thinking leads to a twist where the alarm is triggered, resulting in the arrest of the criminals. The story culminates in James' proposal to Nora, ensuring her days of hunger are over. This film is notable not just for its narrative but also because it is presumed lost, making any existing copies all the more significant for collectors.

When Do We Eat? is available on DVD, providing a rare opportunity to own a piece of silent film history that is both entertaining and reflective of its time.
