As described in a film magazine review, the gold-greedy sultan in levying taxes seizes the daughter of one of his subjects in lieu of money and carries her to his harem. The youth she loves is captured while attempting her rescue, but a friend he has made in the royal city rescues him and the girl. In turn, he is elevated to the ruling seat following the death of the tyrant.
With no prints of The Lady of the Harem located in any film archives,[3] it is a lost film.[4]
