A documentary that addresses the still unfolding struggles of this vulnerable sex workers population. It is particularly urgent now, as attempts to mitigate the Trump administration's failures regarding the pandemic are being drafted with gaps that prevent aid to some of the most vulnerable Americans. As the pandemic continues to unfold, the vulnerability of sex workers acts as a litmus test for all vulnerable groups experiencing the fallout of a mishandled crisis. It investigates how the pandemic has directly impacted sex workers by way of interruption to their work, increased personal risk, and financial destabilization. The film also explores the contrast between the US response to the pandemic and the responses of other nations.
