The film was rated PG despite the fact that it dealt with topics including prostitution and murder.

Since its original theatrical release, the film was released only on VHS (distributed by Video Gems in 1982), and is now out of print.

Plot

The plot centers around the murder of a prostitute in a crime-ridden low-income city neighborhood. Dismayed by the general indifference the police and neighbors show toward the murder, a resident who knew the prostitute sets out to do his own investigation of the case. [1]
