BANDITS

Four women prisoners, very different in character, form a rock band named «The Bandits». When they are invited to play at the annual policeman's ball, they use it as an opportunity to escape. With the media hot on their trail, their music begins to get radio play, and the group develops a huge following, the four women suddenly becoming cult figures. The escape from prison, the rise to fame of a rock group, the doomed female friendship, and the music video: all these genres are masterfully combined in this relentless, thrilling first feature by Katja von Garnier.
