As described in a film magazine review,[3] Tom Richards is a budding violinist in Paris, but his teacher believes he lacks the soul to ever become really great. He thinks if he suffers he will arrive so he arranges a scheme with the young woman Tom loves. She takes a position as a cabaret dancer and he finds her there.
