SUMMARY:
George Gershwin was among the great American Artists who came of age through World War I. Historically, these artists largely developed their art abroad while forever staying connected to their American roots.

A young American girl, coming to Paris, dreams of a magical romance. Goaded on by the promise of adventure, she attends a nightclub where her new-found confidence attracts the attention of everyone, including her true love, no longer a dream. Eventually the young girl must fly back home but the memories of romance and adventure remain everlasting.
