Summary

Pathe synopsis: Another illustration of how people outstanding in one sphere are often equally talented in others. The famous Italian actress Isa Miranda (now living in London), who has reached the summit of her profession, relaxes between parts with a hobby of considerable artistry - creating fantasy characters from lamp bulbs with the aid of some oil paints, scraps of lace, and ribbon. The figures are not only eye-catching but earn hundreds of pounds for charity every year.
