Synopsis
Camille, a model in a Paris modiste shop, is adopted by a member of nobility because she resembles his daughter. Although not accepted by the Parisian court, Camille meets and becomes the mistress of Count De Varville who surrounds her with luxury. Camille's life is devoid of love, however, until she meets Armand Duvall, a member of the Parisian nobility, who awakens the tenderness in her soul. Recognizing the immorality of the life she is leading, Camille consents to leave the city with Armand. When Armand's father learns of his son's misalliance, however, he pleads with Camille to give him up, claiming that his son's conduct is destroying his sister Celeste's chance for happiness. Camille, moved by Duvall's pleas, returns to De Varville. She is followed by Armand who publicly denounces her. Later, as Camille is dying of consumption, Armand's father, conscience stricken, goes to his son and confesses that he was responsible for Camille's actions. Armand then hurries to Camille's apartment, where she dies in his arms.
