A French-Canadian girl is a champion bronc rider and is also a nightclub singer. An ambitious young man sees her act one night and is struck by her talent, realizing that she is good enough to become a Broadway star.

However, the young man finds himself being squeezed out by greedy Broadway producers who see the talented young girl as their own personal gold mine.
