16-year-old groupie Dorothy is riding with a rock band when, suddenly, the van is in a road accident, and she hits her head. She awakes in a fantasy world as gritty and realistic as the one she came from and learns that her arrival killed a young thug. A gay clothier called the Good Fairy gives her a pair of red shoes as a reward to help her see the last concert of the Wizard, an androgynous rock singer. She's pursued and sexually assaulted by the late thug's brother, but she also meets a brainless surfer, a heartless mechanic, and a cowardly biker.
