THE DEVIL'S DAUGHTER
After her father passes away, Jamaican native Isabelle is left disinherited as her successful city-dwelling sister, Slyvia, returns home to claim their plantation for herself. Hoping to scare her sibling off, Isabelle conjures up some fake voodoo rituals but fails to send Sylvia packing. Starring Nina May McKinney.

BEWARE

To do this, he creates a fundraiser and collects money from Harlem to Mississippi, but intends to keep it for himself. Starring Vivianne Baber and A.B. Comethiere.

THE DUKE IS TOPS
Lena Horne stars as an entertainer, who gets a chance at Broadway but currently headlines for a stage show run by Duke (Ralph Cooper). Dreaming of bright lights and big city, Lena cuts her ties to Duke and heads for Broadway. But then when her big debut becomes a big disaster, only Duke can save the day.
