Synopsis

"When a straight guy on the lam from the Mafia hides out in a gay bathhouse, comic mistaken identities, bizarre chases abd unusual confrontations result. Procio, the chubby middle-aged 'hero' finds almost anywhere else would be a safer hideout as he is chased by Mafia types, a chubby lover, and a handsome falsetto-voiced detective who in turn is being chased by towel-clad gays. Close on their heels is a broken-down Peurto Rican bathouse singer with dreams of making it Bette Midler-style who latches on to anyone who she thinks looks like a producer. And guess who owns the bathhouse?"
