Plot
As described in a film magazine,[4] after five years separation Luigi Riccardo (Beban) learns that his wife Maria (Manon) and daughter Tessa (Giraci) are going to join him in America. Although legally not a citizen, in his heart Luigi regards his adopted country with reverence and his refusal to pay graft to Boss Regan (Carpenter) results in his wife and daughter being held at Ellis Island upon their arrival.
