Nei Mari del Sud, un avventuriero bianco viene salvato dall'attacco di uno squalo da una bellissima polinesiana. I due si innamorano perdutamente, e, infrangono con la loro unione le dure leggi del luogo. Scacciati dai membri della tribù della donna, i due si rifugiano su un'isola deserta. Ma la pace tra di loro durerà poco: infatti la fanciulla è tormentata dal senso di colpa per aver deluso la sua gente.
