The story

A mysterious old woman named Malla, who claims to have been brought to America 140 years ago as a slave, approaches endocrinologist Dr. Paul Talbot and promises to reveal to him the secret of eternal youth if he will fund her final trip back to Africa, so that she can be beautiful and young for one last night before she dies. Paul is unhappily married to the alcoholic June, who is 10 years his elder.
