A pair of pantyhose worn by an attractive woman becomes an object of desire first to her lover and then to herself. In the process, said object displays its seductive power to either compliment human sexuality - or commodify it.

"Stocking Stuffers" is an experimental comedic short which illuminates through two brief anecdotes how a pair of pantyhose can become an object of desire whose seductive power can either compliment human sexuality - or commodify it. In the first half of the film, the man and the woman engage in sexy banter triggered, in part, by the pantyhose worn by the woman. In the film's second half, the Man and the Woman appear in three interlocking pantyhose commercials. The first half of the film posits in a suggestive way how an object of desire such as pantyhose can compliment human sexuality while the film's second half suggests in a satiric way how the same object of desire can commodify human sexuality.—Angel Connell

A title card fades up from black. It reads "Consuming The Commodities Of The Heart" before the scene cross fades to an apartment. The Man (Eric Scheiner) is seen relaxing on a plush couch. Walking into view is The Woman (Christy Scott Cashman).

She sits besides The Man and places her legs on his lap. After kicking off her shoes, The Woman and The Man engage in flirtatious banter.

The Man makes an overtly sexual move towards The Woman. She blithely brushes him off. The Man is initially irked by her gesture and indicates he has no interest in wooing her if it requires too much "work.". The Woman coaxes him to seduce her in a more creative manner.

Inspired by the challenge, The Man woos her with nonsensical phrases spoken in an exaggerated manner. They chuckle for a moment. Then the Man and Woman kiss each other. As they do, they slide off the screen as it fades to black.

A new title card fades up from black. It reads "The Heartfelt Commodification Of Consumption" before the scene cross fades to the first of three one-minute satiric pantyhose commercials. Each commercial ends with a title card for the trademark logo of "Sheek Pantyhose."

In it, The Woman (wearing a blonde wig) sits before a pink canvass wearing only a pair of pantyhose. From close up to full body shot, she speaks directly into the camera as she pitches the "Sheek" brand of pantyhose ("I wear Sheek Pantyhose - or I wear nothing at all").

The scene then cross fades into the second pantyhose commercial spoof. As it does, The Man speaks directly into the camera as he pitches the "Sheek" brand of pantyhose ("I say my baby wears Sheek Pantyhose - or she wears nothing at all"). During the course of his monologue, the stocking feet of The Woman playfully stroke his face. He leverages her feet as a part of his pitch.

The scene then cross fades to the third and last faux pantyhose commercial. As it does, we see the couple in bed. They are uncovered and practically naked. The Woman is on top of The Man. She lustily extolls the "Sheek" brand of pantyhose as if it were an aphrodisiac. Intrigued, The Man asks The Woman if she has an extra pair available (intimating he'd wear a pair himself).

The scene cross fades to the credits. After the credits roll, the film fades to black.
