Country girl Alice responds to an advertisement for a "movie school" that promises to transform her into a shining star in record time. Upon arriving at the school, Alice is immediately taken advantage of by the operators, who take her "bank roll". The school staff immediately begins a screen test to see how she "registers" in front of a camera, ordering her to perform various poses and emotional expressions to prove her potential.
