Exploitation film documentary on 'Swinging London' "as it actually happened" or a portrait of a society coming out of deprivation. Arnold Louis Miller, the director of 'Nudist Memories', interviews mods, rockers and beatniks. Wife Swapping, an overworked stripper, child birth, the killing of chickens, a tattoist and an interview with Billy J. Kramer also feature. The unsolved
1963-64 Hammersmith Nude Murders or the'Jack the Stripper' murders of Irene Lockwood, Hannah Tailford and Elizabeth Figg are presented. A concert by The Zephyrs is also shown. This band formed in London in 1961 as Johnny Saville and the Clee-Shays, then became The Zephyrs in 1963. They are not related to the group from Stockton-on-Tees (that band later changed its name to The Zephrons). Jerry Donahue later played with Fairport Convention and the reformed Yardbirds, while Peter Gage played with The Ram Jam Band and Vinegar Joe.
