What's a poor girl to do?

Nina Petrovna (Isa Miranda), a Russian, returns to Vienna as the mistress of an Austrian officer, Baron Engern (Aime Clariond.) There, she meets Lt. Franz Korff (Fernand Gravet)and falls in love with him. And he with her but he leaves the city when he discovers she is the Baron's mistress. Nina breaks with the Baron, who promptly challenges Korff to a duel. Nina returns to the Baron to prevent the duel but, without her lover, finds that life means nothing to her.

First US showing at the Filmarte in NYC, with French dialogue and complete English titles, including the title itself to "The Lie of Nina Petrovna."
