CGiii Comment

Amanda Plummer with 17 tattoos, nipple piercings and chains - not a sight to be missed.

And, really, not a film to be missed.

This is unlike any other road movie you are ever likely to see - forget Thelma & Louise - forget lesbians-in-love films and let this searingly cruel film stab at your sensitivities - this, written by a man, is a shocker for manipulation.

The acting is astounding, the story grueling...utterly memorable.

The(ir) Blurb...

Eunice is walking along the highways of northern England from one filling station to another. She is searching for Judith, the woman, she says to be in love with. It's bad luck for the women at the cash desk not to be Judith, because Eunice is eccentric, angry and extreme dangerous. One day she meets Miriam, hard of hearing and a little ingenuous, who feels sympathy for Eunice and takes her home. Miriam is very impressed by Eunice's fierceness and willfulness and follows her on the search for Judith. Shocked by Eunice's cruelty she tries to make her a better person, but she looses ground herself.
