The Poker House plot
"Lust, drugs and violence... no place for a kid."
It is 1976 and a typical day in the life of an atypical teenager named Agnes. Some people can afford the luxury of living and experiencing each day to the fullest, but for Agnes each day is a horrific struggle for survival: her mother is a persistent drug addict, her home is overrun by degenerate figures and her only father figure is a pimp. For Agnes and her two younger sisters, this particular day will be marked by both tragedy and triumph, but which one will prevail in the days and weeks to come?
