Harry Smith (Bogart) is a black marketeer in colonial Syria, selling arms to the resistance movement against French rule. When he falls for beautiful nightclub singer Violetta (Torén), he becomes caught between her lover, Colonel Feroud (Cobb), and the leaders of the rebel movement. Directed by Curtis Bernhardt (A Stolen Life) and photographed by Burnett Guffey (Knock on Any Door), Sirocco is an exotic film noir classic in the vein of Casablanca.
