Plot summary: Rabha, a pretty girl from a Bedouin tribe, came to the aid of a boy from the city who was injured when he fell off his galloping horse on a hunting trip, and the two of them fell in love. Her tribe had made arrangements for her to marry her cousin, but on the night she was supposed to do that she eloped with the city boy.
