SAFE IN HELL.

Gilda Karlson (Dorothy Mackaill) is a New Orleans prostitute. She is accused of murdering Piet Van Saal, the man responsible for ending her former job as a secretary and leading her into prostitution. Her old boyfriend, sailor Carl Erickson, smuggles her to safety to Tortuga, an island in the Caribbean from which she cannot be extradited. Gilda and Carl get "married" without a clergyman to officiate, and she swears to be faithful to him.
