Synopsis

New England fisherman Dan McQuade finds a dying woman and her daughter shipwrecked after a storm and raises the daughter, whom he names Coral. After Dan reveals how he found her, Coral, who secretly builds sand sculptures, creates a life-size statue of a mother and baby. Wealthy artist Philip Norton and his self-centered bride Helen come on their honeymoon to the bay where Dan and Coral live. Coral, awed by Philip's talent, gives him a statue and they begin a friendship, which provokes Helen's jealousy. When Dan dies, Philip brings Coral to his parents' home in New York, where Helen plots to have her suspected of stealing a diamond. After the accused Coral leaves and Helen, found out, dies in a train wreck, Philip finds Coral's work in an art show. Coral and Philip, along with her instructor Paul Dore, who is really her father, go back to the bay, where Paul kneels by his wife's grave as Philip and Coral embrace.
