Synopsis
In a South American island country, journalist Robby is wanted for murder after his attempt to take photographs of striking oil workers leads to a brawl involving the chief engineer who later succumbs to an injury. Robby goes to take shelter with Arabella, the owner and headliner of the nightclub Cuba Cabana. She has long been the subject of admiration of the governor, whose police are on the track of Robby. Arabella and the journalist are now lovers, but a deal is brokered in which he is spared the death penalty and is expelled from the country. She remains behind, with the governor now hopeful she will be receptive to his advances.
