The movie tells two stories. One was about Glenn, who secretly dressed as a woman but was afraid to tell his fiancée Barbara. The other is about Ellen, a pseudohermaphrodite who undergoes painful surgery to become a woman. Both stories were told by Dr. Alton, who also gave a serious speech on tolerance and understanding. The second narrator, the scientist, made comments that contained more philosophical points than fact. The film also has flashbacks within flashbacks and a strange dream sequence; Inspector Warren's investigation into the suicide of a transvestite makes him learn more about men who wear women's clothing; the clothes Johnny's wife finds out in his absence when he left him; Barbara knew nothing about her fiancé Glenn's desire to wear her angora; Satan invaded Glenn's nightmare; and the scientist offered only cryptic advice like " Watch out for the green dragon sitting at your door"
