Overview

Walter, the son of a shipowner, tries to seduce Rika, engaged to the rough fisherman Wan. When Wan sees Walter kiss her, he leaves in anger, only to be caught in a storm at sea. Believed dead, Rika refuses Walter’s proposal. Wan is rescued by Icelandic fishermen and returns months later to marry Rika. Later, the shipowner schemes to commit insurance fraud, but Wan is killed trying to stop a fire. Grief drives Rika mad, until a new storm strands Walter on the shore. Rika revives him with a kiss, healing herself, and a new romance begins between them.
