En route to Sevilla, Central America, Richard Morton (George Larkin) rescues a beautiful girl whom he knows only as Dolores (Billie Dove) from bandits and learns that she also is en route to Sevilla.

Powell) from his enemy Rodolfo Emanon (Earl Schenck), and learns that Dolores, who has consented to be his wife, is the president's daughter.
A Sister to Salome Synopsis
When famous opera singer Elinore Duane undergoes an operation on her throat, she has a series of ether-induced visions. In one, she is transported to ancient Rome where she appears as a much-admired woman in love with Paul, a young heretic, and at odds with Lutor, the high priest. To save her love, she poisons Lutor with her ring. After several other visions which involve variations on this love triangle, Elinore awakens to discover that Lutor is actually her doctor, Sascha Jaccard, and that Paul is the son of a friend who has come to visit the recovering prima donna.
"Yankee Madness" holds a slight edge in general audience appreciation, but "A Sister to Salome" offers its own unique cult appeal.
