French novelist Max de Mirecourt (Albert Prejean) fights with his wife (Germaine Aussey) and travels with his friend, Coton (Robert Arnoux), to North Africa to clear his head. In Africa, he meets a beautiful, talented Bedouin girl, Alwina (Josephine Baker). He educates her, writes a novel about her, and introduces her to Paris society as Princess Tam Tam. Meanwhile, his wife has made him believe that she is having an affair with a Black prince. The possibility of interracial affairs between the two couples caused this film to be banned in the United States at the time of its release.
