Plot summary
Val Chipzik, 23, comes from France to New York City to become an actress. Between auditions she takes odd jobs: she cleans toilets, sweeps sidewalks and fries spring rolls, and puts her pay into acting and fencing lessons. She has no home and sleeps in the foliage outside a Greenwich Village townhouse belonging to Jack Gardner, a screenwriter who has had writer's block for five years. Jack is annoyed by Val, who changes her clothes and runs through loud vocal exercises in his front yard. She befriends Sparkle, a street prostitute.
