The 1980s were characterized by a distinctive lifestyle and entertainment culture. The era saw the rise of MTV, which revolutionized music consumption, and the dawn of the celebrity culture that we know today.

The story follows the titular character, Alexandra (played by Angela Perez), a newly appointed secretary. The narrative takes a dark turn when she is victimized by her own company manager.
