Synopsis

When the cargo ship Saint-Jacques docks at a seaport, the crew wastes no time going ashore to enjoy the distractions offered by the town. As he wanders the streets after dark, one of the sailors, Jean, encounters an attractive prostitute, Bella (Viviane Romance), whom he mistakes for the one great love of his life. On the run from the police after killing a man, a steward on another ship takes refuge in Bella's modest quarters. Jean saves the man from certain arrest and then embarks on a romantic idyll with Bella. Discovering true love for the first time, the prostitute is sure that Jean will offer her a new life...
