Directed by René Gaveau

Film Synopsis

Jean, the son of Toine, a market gardener in Marseille, would have married Ginette without a moment's hesitation, were it not for his chance meeting with a singer, who becomes his femme fatale.  His godfather intervenes in the nick of time to unmask the dangerous temptress who has already ruined him.   All that Jean has to do is to ask Ginette to forgive him.
