The film is about the relationship between Tom Sullivan, a Pākehā journalist, and Rawi, a Māori woman.

Rawi's family disapproves of her relationship with a Pākehā man, ending in a quarrel.

The two resume their romance, but this time meet with opposition from Sullivan's family and friends, who do not wish him to be involved with a Māori woman.

Sullivan has a change of heart, however, when he is saved from a fire by a Māori friend's sacrifice.
