This unsparing docu-style feature depicts a typical day in a Manhattan brothel where six working girls rent their bodies to an assorted collection of men illustrating just how far some will go to buy the illusion of love, and how far others will go to sell it. Director Lizzie Bordan successfully dashes the Hollywood image of the prostitute by focusing on Molly (Louise Smith) a college girl who is trying to make some fast cash.The film contains a procession of preparations, clients, and rituals that are recorded as slickly and methodically as they are executed, to lasting effect.The brothel is staffed by ten whores in total, working two shifts, and charging fifty dollars when special services are not required. When their shifts are over the girls go home to their private lives with and without husbands and boyfriends.The acting is unsentimental and the camera work is smooth. Borden wisely passes no judgement on her subject.
