  To improve the royal bloodline, the Empress Elizabeth (Louise Dresser) of Russia imports German Princess Sophia (Marlene Dietrich) as the bride for her dull-witted son, the Grand Duke Peter (Sam Jaffe). When the Empress dies, Sophia leads her troops to the palace and ascends to the throne as Catherine the Great. While this story is not historically accurate, it represents one of the best biographical efforts of the 1930s.
