Covered in Fleas traces an hour in the life of Lulu, a neurotic, urban everywoman. After a harrowing walk home from work, Lulu returns to her apartment, where unemployed boyfriend J.J. watches TV. They argue, J.J. walks out and Lulu is left to contemplate matters as best as she knows how. The film contrasts Lulu’s sense of helplessness in situations beyond her control (being sexually harassed in the street) with situations in which she sets up her own victimization (in her relationship). She is unable to differentiate.
