A failed lesbian rock group try to revive their fortunes by travelling to a Battle of the Bands competition in this raucous, lo-fi, high-camp comedy adventure.

It wouldn't be Queer Vision without a Swedish feminist DIY road movie musical, and this year is no exception! This remarkable (if totally nuts) debut feature from director Bitte Andersson packs in all the ninjas, cyborgs, dykes on bikes, ghouls, roller derby girlz, evil villains and B-movie references you could ever dream of; all of whom will do everything they can to stop our band of lesbian heroes from making it to the big city in time to compete in a battle of the bands competition.

The sheer mix of genres on offer here from camp-trash John Waters-esque musical to sci-fi, from action to horror, makes this impossible and proudly queer mixture feel like a cult film in the making. Original and highly unorthodox, fasten your seat belts and get ready for a very special ride.
