A rather strange film. Anita (Lupe Velez) is a lovely girl who dreams of leaving her sleepy backwater island and moving to Havana (this is Cuba way before the revolution of course).
Unfortunately her father (Gibson Gowland) is a rather unpleasant individual who wants to "sell" his daughter in marriage to a sleazy merchant (Jean Hersholt) for a fist full of pearls. Obviously Anita is rather keener on Plan A.
A handsome young American (John Holland) arrives on his yacht and makes things even more complicated. Well that's really the plot, it's a sometimes silly and sometimes annoying movie that doesn't really go anywhere (not even Havana) but is not without charm - nearly all provided by Velez.
