Synopsis
MELODRAMA. A famous film star attempts suicide but is found and rushed to hospital. In the operating theatre she relives her past. At 17 she causes a scandal when her teacher confesses his love to her and, rebuked, commits suicide. She falls in love with a young man but, thinking that he doesn't love her, ends up in a relationship with his father, a married man. After the death of his wife, of which they are inadvertently responsible, he neglects his business, goes bankrupt and is sent to jail for bad debts. On leaving prison he is run over by a car. She discovers that his son, who loved her as she loved him, has married her sister and so she attempts suicide. In the hospital the doctors fail to save her.
