The kidnapping of a beautiful rich young girl, not for money, nor for sex, but just for the joy of doing it is the theme intricately developed by Paul Mayersberg in Captive.

A trio of kidnapers - a French boy, a Japanese boy and an English girl - imprison a rich girl. She's drugged, handcuffed, blindfolded and gagged before being locked up in a chest for the night. As the action proceeds it becomes evident the object of the mission is a brainwashing exercise, to mold the girl to their mode of life. Gradually, they succeed.

Irina Brook (daughter of Peter Brook) is a handsome girl with a firm young body, and willing to show it off. Fortunately, she's also a competent actress in the difficult role of the captive. Oliver Reed gives a commanding performance as the girl's father.
