Description

A road movie like no other. Underrated English artist Audrey Amiss (Monica Nolan) has suffered from mental illness for decades, and now persuades her psychiatric nurse, Sandra (Kelly MacDonald), to drive her and her work to a ?local? art gallery (in fact it?s hundreds of miles away). It?s a lively trip to put it mildly. Inspired by her actual archive of diaries, letters and art held by the Wellcome Collection, including her ?Typist, Artist, Pirate, King? job description in her passport, director Carol Morley weaves real events into this imaginary journey. It?s a dark, funny exploration of friendship, adventure and compassion that refuses to sentimentalise mental illness.
