Spoilers ahead
Dr. Friedrich von Kammacher [Olaf Fønss] is a surgeon whose life is shaken when his wife develops a brain disorder and is institutionalized. On the suggestion of his parents, he leaves Denmark in search of relief and heads to Berlin, where he encounters a bright young dancer named Ingigerd Hahlstrom [Ida Orloff]. He becomes fond of her and quietly hopeful, yet she already has a devoted circle of admirers, so he eventually steps back, deciding to look for solace elsewhere. However, a lead later takes him to Paris, and from there he learns that Ingigerd and her father are bound for New York, prompting him to trail after them with a determination that hints at a deeper yearning.
