Maggie, (Marianne Faithfull), a 50-year-old widow still faithful to her dead husband, desperately needs some money to pay for a medical treatment for her ill grandson.  After several unfruitful attempts to find a job, Maggie finds herself roaming the streets of London’s Soho.  Her eye is caught by a small poster in the window of a 'shop' called "Sexy World" which reads: "Hostess wanted".
