A group of gypsy smugglers are frustrated in their attempts to bring their contraband into the city by Don Jose (Wallace Reid), an incorruptible officer in the Civil Guard. In order to help her kinsmen, the sultry Carmen (Geraldine Farrar) seduces him, persuading him to abandon his post and look the other way. When his infatuation leads him to kill a fellow guardsman in order to prevent her arrest, he becomes a wanted fugitive. The capricious, fickle Carmen resents his possessiveness and leaves him for a famous toreador in Seville. Obsessed and frustrated, a distraught Don Jose follows her to the bullring with tragic consequences.
