The festival also includes a nighttime movie with two iconic femmes fatales. A lonely, bitter waitress, Louise, and her submissive friend, Thelma, controlled by her despotic husband, go on a relaxing weekend trip to the mountains to escape the boredom of everyday life.
Instead of resting, however, a fateful twist awaits them, after which their journey to freedom turns into a wild and uncompromising escape from the law. Ridley Scott's film is not only a thrilling road movie, but above all an iconic rewriting of the rules of the game. It depicts the thrilling transformation of two ordinary women into unusually strong, independent and fateful personalities who refuse to play by the rules of a world dominated by men. It is a chilling and liberating statement about the price of personal freedom, the power of female solidarity and the courage to take one's own life firmly into one's own hands.
