Das Gestohlene Gesicht (The Stolen Face) is an old-fashioned detective yarn given credence by its talented cast. A set of peculiar circumstances force the heroine of the story to assume the identity of another woman. When a murder occurs, the wrong person is held responsible, and it is up to a methodical detective to separate fact from falsehood. Edith Edwards and Fridel Haerlin essay the female leads, doing what they can (and more) with the dialogue they're given.
Basada en una historia de Michel Linsky, la trama gira en torno a una muchacha llamada Mascotte (Harvey), que trata de ganarse la vida posando como modelo para la colonia artística parisina.

Mascotte es "comprada" por un novelista llamado Jean (Harry Halm), que sólo quiere dar una lección a su coqueta mujer. Aunque manteniendo las distancias, Mascotte convence a Jean de hacerse pasar por su amante para que su esposa sienta celos y vuelva a caer en sus brazos. Por supuesto, las cosas no salen según lo planeado, y en poco tiempo Jean y Mascotte se enamoran.
