Professor Oscar Collins has dedicated his life to studying the microscopic world.  He hardly knows his nextdoor neighbours, a pop photographer and a model named Penny Lane.  One day, Collins cannot help noticing a strange light on the hall that separates the two apartments.  Following this light, the scientist is drawn to watch Penny as she poses for one of her photographic sessions.  Captivated by Penny's youth and beauty, Collins finds he is spending less of his time at his treasured microscope and becomes addicted to spying on his alluring neighbour...
