A poignant silent-era romance about a courtesan's self-sacrificial love and the enduring bond that survives separation, poverty, and death.

Camille is a courtesan in Paris. She falls deeply in love with a young man of promise, Armand Duval. When Armand's father begs her not to ruin his hope of a career and position by marrying Armand, she acquiesces and leaves her lover.
