1921. Ewa et sa sœur Magda quittent leur Pologne natale pour la terre promise, New York. Arrivées à Ellis Island, Magda, atteinte de tuberculose, est placée en quarantaine. Ewa, seule et désemparée, tombe dans les filets de Bruno, un souteneur sans scrupules. Pour sauver sa sœur, elle est prête à tous les sacrifices et se livre, résignée, à la prostitution. L’arrivée d’Orlando, illusionniste et cousin de Bruno, lui redonne confiance et l’espoir de jours meilleurs. Mais c’est sans compter sur la jalousie de Bruno…[1]
