Synopsis
Eunice, unpredictable and highly dangerous, paces the highways of the North of England in search of Judith, the only person who has ever loved her. She meets Miriam, a sad and solitary soul whose life is selling gas, looking after her aged and unstable mother and eating pot noodles. She has never met anyone like Eunice before--Eunice is funny, impulsive, passionate--and wild. Miriam is intoxicated. Eunice tests Miriam's love, time after time, as they travel together in search of Judith. Even when Eunice turns out to be a murderess the naive Miriam believes she can save her friend. The challenge is can Miriam make Eunice good before Eunice makes Miriam bad?
