Joy (Coleman) and Mully (Reid) are two loveable rogues. Joy is angry - she's got a baby and motherhood does not come naturally to her; she feels she's tossed her own dreams aside to give a screeching monster unconditional love. And, if she's honest to herself, when she looks in the mirror she sees the shadow of he own neglectful mother. Twelve-year-old Mully has a mum-shaped void in his life, as well as a conman dad. But, Mully's got balls; he nicks his dad's stash of cash and steals a taxi in a bid for freedom. But, there's an almighty yell from the back seat. It's Joy - hungover, freaking out, and holding a baby! As they tear up the road on their riotous misadventure, we follow these roguish 'outlaws' in search of their dreams, in this feel-good, foul-mouthed, fairly-tale.
