Utopia

Summary

In an apartment converted into a brothel, five women of different ages voluntarily work as prostitutes for a sadistic pimp. Every step of the women is monitored by the man, there is practically no privacy. Attempts to resist the servitude are cruelly punished. To nip any danger of a common rebellion in the bud, the pimp also plays the women off against each other. But even after they have killed their tormentor collectively, the five women do not succeed in freeing themselves from their inhumane living situation.
