Bilgi :This tragic tale centers around the ill-fated love between Baptiste, a theater mime, and Claire Reine, an actress and otherwise woman-about-town who calls herself Garance. Garance, in turn, is loved by three other men: Frederick, a pretentious actor; Lacenaire, a conniving thief; and Count Eduard of Monteray. The story is further complicated by Nathalie, an actress who is in love with Baptiste. Garance and Baptiste meet when Garance is falsely accused of stealing a man's watch. Later, Garance is forced to leave town under the protection of Count Eduard when she gets mixed up in a crime committed by Lacenaire. In the intervening years of separation, both Garance and Baptiste become involved in loveless marriages with the Count and Nathalie, respectively. Returning to Paris, Garance finds that Baptiste has become a famous mime actor and plots to meet him. Their rendezvous is exposed and Nathalie loses Baptiste, Baptiste loses Garance, and Garance disappears.Parigi. Il secolo scorso. "Ai funamboli", un teatro del Boulevard du Temple, si esibisce il grande mimo Baptiste, che vive un difficile amore per Garance, volitiva ed attraente attrice, contesa da altri uomini : il grosso ed un po' volgare Lemaitre, attore ; l'avventuriero Lacenaire ; il conte di Montray. La donna ha una relazione con i tre uomini, ma non riesce ad avere l'uomo che veramente ama, il timido mimo, che non trova il modo di dichiararle il proprio amore. Passano gli anni, Baptiste si sposa ed ha dei figli, ed un giorno incontra Garance : finalmente si amano, ma, all'arrivo della moglie dell'uomo, l'attrice decide di farsi definitivamente da parte.
