The tragic life of Lola Montes, the beautiful dancer and courtesan from the 19th century. Reduced to working as the main attraction in a seedy circus, she reminicises on her past as a dancer and her failed romances with various important men throughout Europe. Her beauty broke hearts and caused scandals, and it cost Lola just as much as it gave.
