520    "At the turn of the new millennium, LA is the place to be.
       "Hipster" is a new word on the scene. Lauren Conrad is 
       living her Cinderella story in the "Hills" on millions of 
       television sets across the country. Paris Hilton tells us 
       "That’s hot" from behind the biggest sunglasses imaginable
       , while beautiful teenagers fight and fall in love on The 
       O.C. Into this most glittering of supposed utopias, Kate 
       Flannery arrives with a Seven Sisters diploma in hand and 
       a new job at an upstart clothing company called American 
       Apparel. Kate throws herself into the work, determined to 
       climb the corporate fashion ladder. Having a job at 
       American Apparel also means being a part of the 
       advertising campaigns themselves, stripping down in the 
       name of feminism. She slowly begins to lose herself in a 
       landscape of rowdy sex-positivity, racy photo shoots, and 
       a cultlike devotion to the unorthodox CEO and founder of 
       the brand. The line between sexual liberation and 
       exploitation quickly grows hazy, leading Kate to question 
       the company's ethics and wrestle with her own"--|cProvided
