Egret vividly evokes the art scene and gay world of New York in the 80’s. It's the story of a young artist, Jodi Marquette, shy, proud and idealistic but very inexperienced, very talented and very poor. She comes to 1980's Manhattan seeking to establish herself with her beautiful and haunting images of birds and the natural environment. As she is drawn from the chic galleries and gritty lesbian bars of Manhattan to exclusive private parties in elegant beach houses of the Hamptons, she is awed but masks her insecurities. And almost everywhere, she encounters Morgan Smith, a beautiful, older, and seemingly inscrutable woman and the powerful owner of a prestigious art gallery. For Jodi, each encounter feeds a conflicting jumble of emotions -- humiliation, helplessness, anger and raw physical passion.
