Reality is just around the bend.
In a last-ditch mission to get recognition for her talent, a non-conformist, forgotten artist persuades her psychiatric nurse to take her on a road trip back to where her story began – but with so many deviations into the past along the way, will they ever make it?
A dark and funny exploration of the growing friendship between two women as they hit the road in an electric car looking for endings. A road movie and a buddy movie which shifts from tender social commentary to fantastical magical realism filled with humour, vivacity and adventure.
