Film Synopsis
Julien Montel, a once famous singer, is believed to have drowned during
a sea crossing some time ago. His wife Renée has since
remarried, not knowing that Julien is still very much alive.
Afflicted with amnesia, he lives as a fisherman under the name of Paolo
in Portugal. When an impresario hears him singing one day he
immediately signs him up for Radio Monte-Carlo. Julien appears
destined for a second shot at stardom, but when he appears at the
Opéra his memory returns to him, just as Renée hears his
voice over the airwaves. Realising that someone has attempted to
kill him Julien plans to take his revenge...
