Naná aspira a triunfar en el teatro. Después de un fracaso estrepitoso al interpretar el papel de dama distinguida, decide a aceptar las reiteradas proposiciones del Conde Muffat.

En "Nana" es indiscutible la influencia de "Esposas frívolas", de Erich von Stroheim (1921), donde la codicia se presenta como la pasión más destructiva del ser humano. Renoir le añade la abismal diferencia social entre criados y señores. El fracaso de la película dejo a Renoir completamente arruinado.
