Synopsis
Jeanne de Romer ( Dita Parlo), fille ruinée, fait vivre quatre personnes : sa mère, un grand-père paralysé, un frère et une sœur, avec son modeste salaire. Son patron (Paul Pauley) étant arrêté pour escroquerie, elle est acculée à la misère. Dans la "rue sans joie" où elle demeure, Madame Geffier (Marguerite Deval), qui tient une louche maison de couture, l'attire chez elle et la fait s'endetter pour quelques robes. Puis elle veut la livrer à un riche marchand de bestiaux (Pierre Alcover). Un crime est commis dans un meublé de la "Geffier" au moment même où Jeanne fuit les brutalités du marchand de bestiaux. Un aventurier (Valery Inkijinoff), découvert comme étant le dernier amant de la victime, Léa Level (Mila Parely), est inculpé d'assassinat, puis la Geffier dénonce Jeanne de Romer comme complice. Le journaliste Albert Dumas (Albert Préjean), convaincu de l'innocence de Jeanne mène son enquête.Actors
