Independently produced film from Chicago that shows disaffected artist-types dealing with modern, big city dehumanization. At its best on location in the Chicago meat packing industry where hot dogs come off the assembly line, or in a junk yard where cars are crushed and neatly stacked. An old, homeless man is an important character, but his purpose and origin are never explained. He just seems to drift from place to place. In other scenes, artists argue over the Mona Lisa and then perform an abortion, a man dances in a club with showgirls, and other vague, seemingly unrelated tangents.
