A story of doomed love in 1840s Paris. Violetta, who is the mistress of a wealthy Baron, hosts a lavish party
to celebrate her improved health after a bout with tuberculosis. There she meets Alfredo and instantly falls in
love with him. The guests join them in the famous "Drinking Song." Violetta leaves the Baron, and she and
Alfredo move into a secluded country villa together, where they live happily for a while. But, unknown to
Alfredo, his father visits Violetta and convinces her that continuing her relationship with Alfredo will
prevent Alfredo's sister from making a good marriage. Violetta decides that she must not only break permanently
with Alfredo, she must keep him at a distance by returning to the Barton. Misunderstanding her motives, Alfredo
flies into a jealous rage that leads to tragic consequences.
