Marlene Dietrich stars in this romantic drama about a love-triangle involving a femme fatale, directed by Josef von Sternberg. Set against the background of Spain's Carnival, young army officer Antonio Galvan (Cesar Romero) is warned against getting involved with the seductive and sultry Concha Perez (Dietrich). Although Don Pasqual (Lionel Atwill) tries his best to dissuade the younger man, telling him of her gold-digging ways, his pleas fall on deaf ears as Antonio soon becomes bewitched. When, days later, he stumbles upon the couple in the street, all of Pasqual's past jealousies and hurt resurface, forcing him to confront Antonio in a final, desperate bid for Concha's love.
