In der schwülen Atmosphäre des Striptease-Lokals betrachtet er immer wieder dieselbe Tänzerin. Nacht für Nacht tritt Christina unter den Kommentaren von DJ Eric auf. Zoe, die Besitzerin des Etablissements, beobachtet das absurde Treiben durch verspiegelte Scheiben. Gemeinsam sind sie in einem schillernden Netz gegenseitiger Abhängigkeiten verstrickt.
In the upscale Toronto strip club Exotica, dancer Christina is visited nightly by the obsessive Francis, a depressed tax auditor.
