Maria sets out on the adventure of a lifetime. She's leaving France, now decadent and corrupt, and heading for America, which is still young, and strong and vigorous. Travelling on the S.S. France on the Atlantic crossing has its own perils. She's been getting an awful lot of male attention, and she's realistic enough to know that it's a ship. They have six days and six nights, and then none of them will never see each other again. As for a certain Monsieur Yusuf Khoury, there's something just a little bit different about that one. Dusty Miller's The Immigrants is a short and romantic story of young love and long odds.
