Beeng the fourth ecranisation (the previosly three (1909, 1912 and 1916 are belives to be lost) it's very close to original text. The novel also was another three ecranisations (1990's A Holy Place (Sveto mesto), 2006's The Power of Fear (Vedma) and 2014's Forbidden Empire althought the last three versions are very loosely based on the novel.
