Description Violetta, a beautiful courtesan, whirls through an indulgent and hectic life of flirtation and laughter in the Paris of the 1850's. Who could foresee the bitter and tragic fate awaiting this delightful creature. But death stalks her in the form of consumption, striking her at the moment of supreme joy when she has finally found happiness in the true and tender love of Alfredo
