Further portraits of socialite and muse Edie Sedgwick. In Beauty #2 she auditions a new boyfriend as an off-screen acquaintance provokes her with snide comments and questions, initiating a complex psychological situation. Space begins with a planned scenario in which different characters read eight unconnected scripts, but soon degenerates into casual talk, food fights and folk singing.
