A wry, slightly magical fable about small-town girls dreaming of escape, told with dry wit and a quiet sense of longing.

How it feels: Satirical, whimsical, earnest and dark. Measured and needs your attention.
About: Class, ambition, identity, gender
Content: Mild violence, sexual content and language. No gore.
Note: Written by AI, so it can be wrong. Full breakdown
