Der italienischstämmige Arturo Bandini ist während der großen Depression von Colorado nach Los Angeles gezogen, um seiner Familie und seinen Freunden zu beweisen, dass er es als Schriftsteller schaffen kann. In einer schäbigen Bar lernt er die feurige Mexikanerin Camilla kennen, die seine Gefühle nur bedingt erwidert. Sie verliebt sich in einen weißen Barmann – und schließlich in harte Drogen, die ihren Niedergang bedeuten. Erst als er sich von Camilla frei machen kann, platzt bei Bandini der kreative Knoten.
