| Summary: | Madame Wang's is a story about a machistic East German, (Patrick Schoene) who comes to L.A. looking for Jane Fonda to help lead the revolution. He jumps ship just before dock and swims ashore to find a group of people living in an old abandoned building, some sell junk at the local flea market (one crazy looking fellow likes to sniff door handles), others sell their bodies for money. It is at one of these Flea Markets that Madame Wang is introduced, she happens to be the owner of Madame Wang's Restaurant, a place for Punk bands to get their start. The East German has no luck finding Jane Fonda so instead decides to live the American lifestyle for a while, donning soccer jerseys (which what he thinks all Americans wear) and hoping he can score a Mercedes from a rich sugar Mama. |
