Synopsis by Janiss Garza

Madge Kennedy plays Primrose, a shepherdess who still believes that romantic fairy tale about the white knight who will come to take her away from the little duck farm where she lives. She's being courted by a prosaic but moneyed concrete manufacturer, and he doesn't interest her at all. A young writer (John Bowers) comes floating in on a yacht, and when he shows an understanding of her dreams, she is convinced that he is her "knight." The concrete manufacturer can only compete with material goods, but they can't shatter her day dreams. Unfortunately, the film itself seemed to suffer from the same clash between the poetic and pragmatic and couldn't hold onto the illusions it tried to create.
