Jane (Samantha Mathis), a drug-addicted stripper, lands in the hospital after an overdose. But even after a doctor determines she’s HIV-positive, Jane hits the streets again for a heroin fix. She’s pursued by Tony (Joseph Gordon-Levitt), a depressed teenager who sees her as a surrogate mom and tries to help her, but she views him as a pest. Yet the two develop a codependence when Jane moves into a fancy hotel and AIDS attacks Tony’s health.
