L’action de ce film de fiction se passe presque entièrement à Montréal (avec de brèves scènes censées se dérouler à New York et Toronto). L'axe de l’intrigue est une discothèque, le Starlight, inspirée de la véritable discothèque le Lime Light. Ainsi, une partie du tournage s’est déroulée alentour de l’immeuble qui avait abrité le Lime Light sur la rue Stanley à Montréal (maintenant le club de danseuses nues Chez Parée et la discothèque La Boom).

Two mentally ill women who are clearly suffering from not otherwise specified delusional disorders, a mother and a (grown) daughter, live together in a secluded mansion. They are in a relationship and both are recognised for their beauty. They spend their days playing perverse BDSM-related incestuous games in memory of their sadistic patriarch who, when he was still alive, raped his daughter when she was eleven, murdered several servants, and is now a mummified corpse with which the daughter is shown having sex. They occasionally kill their servants and bury their bodies in the garden.
