Sahande, a Tartar girl placed on the block to be sold, is bought by Costa, a Gypsy chief who outbids Sahande's fiancé, Sender. Costa marries the infuriated Sahande but agrees to give her 10 days in which either to return his love or have Sender fight him. Before the 10 days expire Sender and 30 of his men overtake Costa and imprison him in a tower. When a fire starts there, Sahande realizes she loves Costa and rescues him.—AFI
