Nellie, Daisy and Lou are a fiery trio of girls who end up in an institution for delinquents on an isolated island in 1950s New Zealand. The trio rail against the system, finding strength in their friendship. But will this be enough to overcome the will of the authorities and the school´s matron? A surprisingly uplighting spirited tale of female rebellion from the producers of last year’s festival hit Red, White and Brass.
