A one-night stand with an entertainer threatens to destroy a woman's marriage after she gives birth to a black child.

An American couple, Douglas and Mary, are in the nightclub 'La Vache Rose'. When Julot and Nini are performing 'La Danse Apache', Douglas thinks that Nini is being abused and he comes to her defense. He doesn't know that it's all part of the dance. "Chiqué" is the first French talking picture produced in France.
