Storyline Max de Mirecourt, celebrated French novelist, takes a vacation from his
social-butterfly wife in Tunisia, where he meets beautiful Alwina, a
barefoot hill shepherdess. To cure his writer's block, Max casts Alwina
as heroine in a real-life 'Pygmalion' story. She reacts to civilized
ways and emotions with charming simplicity. Now Max, stung by reports of
his wife's affair with a dark-skinned maharajah, has the idea of
launching Alwina in Paris society as a princess. Will civilization spoil
her wild charms? Who will pair off with whom?
