A willful demagogue (Courtney Patterson) fights to free a young woman from sexual slavery by confronting the cunning proprietor of a shady brothel (Daniel May) in this film combining elements of Frank Wedekind's play Death and the Devil with Anton Chekhov's short story A Nervous Breakdown. Meanwhile, as the brothel-owner uses his wits to distract the would-be liberator, the fates of a timid student (Clifton Guterman) and a naïve prostitute hang in the balance.
