Greta Garbo, an icon of the Art Deco era, portrays an anguished lover trapped in a suffocating relationship with a domineering, jealous man. Her only solace lies in clandestine meetings with her true love. In this poignant tale, a fleeting glance, a subtle gesture, and one stolen kiss wield the transformative power of fate.
