The carefree life at a decadent cabaret in Paris is overshadowed by the darkening cloud of war in this thrilling drama. Beppo (Roger Hanin) is a club owner with ties to the mob who wages a secret war against the evil forces of fascism who control the local police. Vivian Reed gives a memorable performance as Josephine Baker, while gangsters, Nazis and other thugs wage a nocturnal battle for control of the city of lights.
