The film, the last of a trilogy, is loosely based on the life of Xaviera Hollander, a prostitute from the Netherlands, as she attempts to make a film in Hollywood based on her best-selling book about her life. She gets involved with some of the most crooked producers in Hollywood, but beats them at their own game and films the movie without them.

gollark: Actually, this is somewhat true even with much less technology, since global trade has IIRC been required for *ages* to keep everything running.
gollark: If you want to maintain our current technology, you need wide-scale coordination for the economies of scale to work out.
