1927, English. Directed by Scott Pembroke.
Dorothy, the unsophisticated daughter of Johann Graff, a stern, protective cobbler, dreams of entering café society after a night out with a friend.

When Bert is falsely arrested for stealing an automobile, Dorothy is forced to work as a cigarette girl. She and Bert are later reunited, and Johann forgives his daughter.
