Synopsis in German
Vaudeville-Star Zaza ist d i e Attraktion des Odéon in einer französischen Kleinstadt: Alle Mämner beten die temperamentvolle Diva an, aber ihr Herz schlägt nur für den Diplomaten Bernard. Als Florianne, ihre Rivalin auf der Bühne, das Seil ihrer Schaukel anschneidet, verletzt sich Zaza um in den Armen Bernards zu genesen. Das Glück scheint perfekte, bis Zaza herausfindet, dass Bernard verheiratet und Frau und Kind in Paris hat. Das Glück des Kindes vor ihren Augen, verzichtet sie auf Bernard.

Reviews in German: Ein für die Zwanziger Jahre typischer Film aus dem Milieu des Demimonde, eine Rolle, die Gloria Swanson so richtig auf den Leib geschrieben wurde.
