Life for the prostitutes of Copenhagen is harsh, brutal and dangerous. Who are these girls? What do they talk about when they are together? What happens when they steal from one another in their ceaseless struggle to find enough money to finance their drug addiction? What do they think of the police and social services departments? How do the police and social services departments treat them? What about AIDS? 'Street-girls' lets the prostitutes speak for themselves. It was shot in the only sanctuary the girl possess, a building in the middle of the red light district of Copenhagen were they can find a sympathetic ear, a cup of tea, help in contacting the authorities. A place where they can do their hair and make-up their faces so they are saleable products when they go back into the street.
