Storyline
| Plot Summary |
Four female convicts form a band in prison and get the chance to play at a police ball. But instead of performing, they run. When a record label exec sees their escape on the news, he releases the band's previously rejected EP and uses their mugshots for the campaign. And so, the "bandits" become famous - which is something they've always wanted, but not great, when you're on the run. Written by Unicorn Pictures |
