When her father, a minister, passes away, Florence decides to take his place. With the help of a skilled con man, she markets herself as a miracle worker. In the days of the financial crisis, many respond to the words of faith and the optimistic tone; among the convinced is John, a blind artist who finds solace in her verses. At only 24, Barbara Stanwyck portrays a powerful but dishonest woman who struggles between the forces in her life: love and truth or success and lies. Capra, who directed Stanwyck in five films, presents a glorious drama.
