Synopsis by Hal Erickson

American actress June Marlowe's fluency in the German language served her well in such Teutonic film dramas as Durchs Brendburger Tor (Brandenburg Arch). Marlowe stars as a shoemaker's daughter who falls in love with one of her father's employees. When her sweetheart is reported killed in WWI, she marries another apprentice shoemaker, who in addition to being a cad and a coward is also a swindler. Happily, our heroine is reunited with her true love when he returns from a Russian POW camp. The role played by June Marlowe in Durches Brendburger Tor is significantly different from her more familiar assignment as Miss Crabtree in the Our Gang comedies.
