Dallesandro plays Joey Davis, an unemployed former child star who supports himself as a hustler in Los Angeles. Joey uses sex to get his landlady to reduce his rent, then seduces Sally Todd (Miles), a former Hollywood starlet. Sally tries to help Joey revive his career but her status as a mediocre ex-actress proves to be quite useless. Sally's psychotic daughter Jessica (Feldman) further complicates the relationship between Sally and the cynical, emotionally-numb Joey.

The film was conceived by Warhol as a parody of some sort of Sunset Boulevard.
