Christiane runs a bar in Antwerp which is frequented by the smuggler Tino. After killing a customs officer, he steals her jewellery and flees. She informs on him to the police, but he manages to escape and comes looking for revenge against her. She joins a group of emigrants leaving on a ship for South Africa as a stowaway. Hiding in the cabin of one of the crew, she gradually falls in love with him.
