Orlando, a man with an infertile wife (Minerva), begins an affair with Jennifer, a nightclub dancer/stripper.
Breaking standard cinematic tropes of the era, the film concludes with empowerment rather than standard tragedy. Realizing her self-worth, Minerva ultimately leaves Orlando. Concurrently, Jennifer recognizes Orlando's fundamental selfishness and abandons him as well, leaving the patriarchal figure completely isolated. Casting and Key Performances
