Miguel is an aimless and lonely young man who wanders through New York City (Penn Station, the Metropolitan Museum, Times Square) searching for a young woman who would be willing to spend a few hours with him. Occasionally, such a woman does go with him to his dismal Greenwich Village apartment, but through lack of physical desire and ineptitude the seduction usually ends in failure. Equally empty are the lives of his friends and neighbors; Astrid, a lesbian, haunts the bars on MacDougal Street; Stasia, her friend, picks up a fat out-of-towner in the hope of making a few dollars; Viraj and Robert return home after a frustrating night and begin a homosexual affair. At night these people return to the streets.
