On the distant colony of France off the coast of Africa, the rich planter Louis Max invites the bride found by correspondence to create a family. Soon after the marriage, Julie disappears mostly Louis. It becomes obvious that the beauty was an impostor. By chance, a deceived husband manages to find a wife in France. Louis still loves Merion and forgives her everything. But does Merion experience the same deep feelings? Or is she still interested exclusively with his money?
