"The expectation... the experience... the climax!"
Harriet (Lisa DeLeeuw) lives a repressed existence working as a secretary in a Manhattan office. After discovering that her boss (Robert Kerman) is secretly seeing a prostitute named Lucy (Lee Carroll), Harriet works up the courage to approach her to see if she can help her overcome her inhibitions. As the two women become closer and closer friends, Lucy begins to feel that she's losing her identity—to Harriet's benefit.
A complex psychological drama written and directed by Henri Pachard and co-directed and shot by Roberta Findlay, Mascara is an unforgettable exploration into the sexual psyche.
