| This film, written and directed by the two lead actresses, features three weeks in the life of Shy, a small-town butch with a nagging messiah complex. She dumps her diner job after the death of her father and hitch-hikes to San Francisco to immerse herself in a life of petty crime. On her journey, she meets her match in Valentine, a deliriously expressive, pretentious adoptee who is searching for her birth-mother. The two lonely grifters join forces and embark on a journey through the skid-row streets of San Francisco and learn the true meaning of "poise under pressure" in this visually stunning and wonderfully acted, anti-authoritarian tale of friendship, trust and redemption. |
