Set against the turbulent background of Hitler's invasion of Austria, Prince Kurt Von Rotenberg (George Brent), a dispossessed Austrian prince, and Marta Keller (Martha Scott), fall in love on a ship bound for America. Marta's father, Professor Keller (Egon Brecher), disapproves of their romance and they go their separate ways. Kurt becomes a London playboy and romances socialite Barbara Murdock (Kay Linaker). Marta and her father open a Viennese restaurant and dedicate themselves to helping fellow refugees. Kurt, high on the Nazi hit list, mends his ways and offers to sacrifice himself in exchange for the release of seven Austrian prisoners of war.
