This graphic image promotes the film Zouzou, whose greatest acclaim is featuring Baker as the first black woman to star in a major motion picture. As a child, Baker's Zouzou is a traveling circus performer who has been paired with a non-blood-related twin, Jean. Even when they're older, Jean treats her as a sister, but Zouzou falls in love with him. Through this lovelorn drama, Zouzou eventually becomes a star performer in her own right.
