Paul and Virginia, two fatherless children are brought up in poverty and innocence, amid the tropical scenery of the island of Mauritius. Virginia is recalled to France by a harsh and wealthy aunt. There she is miserable, and after two years returns to the island. But her ship is wrecked and she is drowned before the eyes of Paul.
