Film Synopsis
Pierre Durban, a journalist on a Parisian newspaper, needs some money so that he can marry his girlfriend Jacqueline Dejouvre and start a family. A small ad leads him to the Stefani Agency, whose manager offers him work. But there is a snag. Pierre must put up a sum of money before he can start. As it happens, Stefani's secretary is Marcelle Levasseur, a girl Pierre knew as a child. She suggests that his mother should help him out with her savings. She also tries to dissuade Pierre because she knows that Stefani is a swindler. When Stefani learns that Marcelle has betrayed him, he decides to enact a cruel revenge...© James Travers
