Adaptation of 1911 novel The Reason Why by Elinor Glyn – Tancred, the English Lord, after having lost all his money wants to immigrate to Canada. He was about to leave when his friend presented him with a rich widow, Zora. The young man is delighted with this opportunity, gets married and stays in England. The woman suspects that her husband married her only because of her money, so at the beginning she behaves coldly with him. The husband, however, gradually becomes increasingly in love with his wife and he would heat up their chilly relationship. One day - when Zora tells her life story to her husband– two hearts finally find each other, and marriage of convenience becomes a love marriage.

The title character in Maria Nover (Sister Maria) is played by Eva Szorenyi. A convent-bred lass on the verge of taking her final vows, Maria falls in love with a handsome artist, portrayed by popular operatic baritone Sandor Sved. Due to a silly misunderstanding, she walks out on Sved and marries his best friend Paul Javor. The frustrated suitor quits the art world to become a world-famous concert singer. Years later, he returns to reclaim Maria, only to find that she's not only still a wife, but also a mother and a dedicated nurse. Gracefully bowing out of her life, the Pagliacci-like Sved continues his singing career to assuage his broken heart.
