Meet Sonny and his mother Jewel. Sonny has returned from the army to his mother's loving arms, to the sultry, sordid streets of New Orleans, to his mother's whorehouse. He's one of Jewel's most sought-after ''employees'', but he's thinking about a career change. Sonny is back to start his life anew.Maybe with Carol, one of Jewel's girls, and one of the few who dream of a life outside ''the life''. Or maybe in Texas, where the promise of a real job seems almost too good to be true. Until now, he's survived in a business where women pay to sleep with him. But how much will it cost to set him free?
