Prostitute introduces a Young Lawyer to the underground Drug Culture

director: Gavin O'Connor
starring: Diana Ashbrook · Angela Shelton · Harry Lennix · Henry O'Reilly · Anne Bobby

William Best, a clean-cut young lawyer meets a beautiful prostitute named Meadow who drags him into a decadent dead-end world of drugs, sex and corruption. Obviously inspired by the Pink Floyd song (of the same title) this film creates an attractive - yet decadent - look at the underground drug culture. The realistic portrayal resulted a harsh NC-17 rating which kept distribution to a minimum.

This was the debut project for filmmaker Gavin O'Connor, best known for his television work, including the Award Winning pilot episode of The Americans in 2013.

An American Film with optional Greek subtitles; widescreen format (1.85:1), uncut print (101 min.), DVD encoded for ALL REGION NTSC, playable on any American machine.
