Summary:
Fictional recreation of a typical day in the life of a middle-class brothel in New York City. The events are seen from the point of view of the prostitutes, who regard sex for money as a sensible business transaction, and who are portrayed sympathetically as normal women with goals and concerns like anyone else.
