This semi-improvisational film, set in Portland,Oregon, is based on a real event and features many of the actual participants for the cast. It tells the story of a group of people who endeavor to buy a neighborhood slated for demolition so they can establish their own community in the 1960s. Among them are a poet, a midget who aspires to be a stand-up comic, and a con man and his young girl friend and their child.
