A New York lawyer, the last discarded lover of the adulterous and icy beauty Holly (a dazzling, never-ending Catharine Burgess), decides to blackmail her by hiring a gangster (of course, Jamie Gillis) to covertly observe and film her with her new lover in the hotel room. A subplot involves the gangster's abused girlfriend (Terri Hall) and her drug problem.
This adult oddity includes writer, producer, and co-star Ronan O'Casey, perhaps best known for his regular appearances in 1950s family comedies. It wasn't common for a mainstream actor to participate so openly in a porn production (even if he didn't show anything), but some did, even covertly. Director Bob Gill, a renowned graphic designer who had designed the cover of the Beatles' first album for Apple Records, was encouraged to film this dark and disturbing thriller suitable only for lovers of "porn chic" cinema.
