Synopsis by Sandra Brennan

Comedienne Sandra Bernhard is profiled in this British documentary. Much of the film is taken from a nightclub routine she performed in New York in 1992. The performer's lines are then used to lead into her personal history. Bernhard and her mother are both interviewed, but they don't reveal a lot of secrets. Included are family pictures and pictures from her Playboy layout. Her work is discussed by people such as Camille Paglia and Martin Scorsese.
