- Summary:
- Young party girl Polly decides to cast off her affluent Chelsea lifestyle to move to the industrialized ghetto of Battersea. In search of realism, Polly takes a factory job where she befriends sisters Rube and Sylvie and moves into a rundown apartment in the area. She soon discovers the seedier side of life in an impoverished world of crime, desperation and questionable morality, a side of life that everyone but Polly is desperately trying to leave behind.
