Nearly 70 years ago, a motion picture shocked the world, and made Marlene Dietrich a STAR. And now, a daring, MODERN American version. Professor Unrat, head of the film department at a San Francisco University, discovers that three of his students have made an erotic film featuring a notorious cabaret performer named Lola (Raine O’Connor). The Professor confiscates the film, and while watching it becomes totally obsessed with the woman. His complete destruction is guaranteed as he begins a tortuous journey into a world of depravity and deceit.
