Gil Graham wanted a job in the movies but when he enters the offices of James Rosen, one of Hollywood's toughest new-style movie producers, he gets more than he had bargained for. Gil soon discovers that he has a lot of what the hunky young men working on the film want and before long he's giving it to them every way they want it. The glamorous-and sometimes not so glamorous-movie business forms the backdrop to this carnal tale acted out in Rome's sultry streets-Vice City where everything is for sale. But by the end Gil finds something more valuable than a career: true love.
