She also reversed class and gender roles, as she made the female character Gossette come to the aid of Phillipe de Savières, falsely accused of murder, in order to save his name.

Eugenie, a young girl with a delicate temperament, runs away from the sordid cabaret run by her mother. Helped by a providential coincidence, she became a model in a fashion house on the Champs-Élysées.
