Elise Hill, a prostitute, stripper and drug addict in New York, asked fellow artist Karen Gehres to record her life on videotape. Years later she entered rehab and started selling her art, but soon returned to stripping. Mayor Giuliani’s zoning laws put the squeeze on the sex industry, and the film follows Elise as she wrestles with her uncertain fate.
