Clutching her little can of Mace, Amanda (Lauren Graham) braves the wilds of Jersey City to enjoy the guilty pleasures of her favorite empanadas. Little does she know, but a sudden fender bender and disabled car soon land her in the strangely bent world of three young queens - Towanda (Joe Holt), Angelyne (Michael Benjamin Washington), and neophyte Luz (Joey Cee) . The four soon set off on an increasingly revealing journey of personal vulnerability, boundary-crossing and derring-do... all for the sake of a grinning gnome. As Amanda sheds her prejudices and fears, she also unfolds some hidden resentments and losses in her own life.A striking job of directing and acting, with spare camera work and tight blocking - mostly within the confines of an aging vehicle heading for Montclair. Directed by Jenny Bicks as part of the multi-film Reel Moments project by Glamour Magazine, featuring true stories from women's lives, and exclusively directed by women. A Moxie Pictures release and a big hit at the Berlin Film Festival.
