Synopsis by Robert Firsching

This routine softcore pinku eiga melodrama comes as something of a disappointment from acclaimed Nikkatsu director Chusei Sone. Tamaki Katsura and Naomi Oka star as two sisters who work as b-girls in a ritzy nightclub, supplementing their income with prostitution. When their other sister, naïve country girl Rei Okamoto, joins them, the three become highly successful and foil a plot by the club's manager to steal it away from the owner. Like scores of American films of its time, the "three sexy girls save the nightclub/car wash/restaurant" plot line grows wearisome quickly, and there is little of Sone's customary stylish eroticism to pick up the slack. Reiko Akitsu co-stars.
