An airplane, carrying policeman and gangsters, crash-lands in a jungle, where they discover a white girl and her father, lost twelve years previously in another plane crash. The father and daughter are living quietly with the natives but are eager to get back to civilization, since the girl has a large estate and fortune she can claim. She makes a deal with the pilot to return for her after she has shown him how to escape by the river. A tribal medicine-man and the head gangster attempt to prevent the pilot's escape.
