An optimistic young girl travels alone to New York City where she hopes to earn money to send home to her ailing father.
Expecting work in a beauty salon, the girl is instead delivered into the hands of her father's distant cousin, an embittered woman who runs a seedy massage parlor.
The girl surrenders her passport as collateral for her "debt" and is informed of her duties.
