Synopsis by Sandra Brennan
In this comedy, a lesbian lass emigrates from Germany to New York to become an actress. Once there she begins sharing an apartment with a gay fellow. Things are just dandy until her straight-laced dad Hans announces that he wants to visit and meet the husband she had written so much about. Of course there is no husband and Vicky must think of something post haste. Finally she manages to talk her leather-wearing, ultra effete roomie to pose as her hubby. Things go from strange to stranger when Hans finally arrives and both father and daughter begin embarking upon a variety of adventures in the very foreign Big Apple.
