A story-within-a-story. Dolly is a woman trapped and isolated in a house with her man and friends; their fantasy seems to be about a Russian philosopher, his wife, student and servant. The wife is rescued by a dying vampire. Dolly is advised by her female friends to leave but is actually abused by all. When she almost does leave, the helplessness of her man in his search for the Cheez Whiz stops her. A satire on stereotyped women, men, film and filmmakers in a 20-minute “tragi-comedy.”
