Part Little Miss Sunshine road movie, part John Waters camp revenge comedy, Drool is a darkly comic tale of accidental murder and unexpected lesbian love.
Anora Fleece has got it rotten. Her husband, Cheb, is a bastard. Her kids treat her bad. And she lives in the middle of nowhere feeling like a nobody. That is until a new neighbour, Imogene Cochran, moves in.
Imogene sells Kathy K. Kosmetics, “make-up for the cocoa skinned woman”, in a town where racism is standard. But that doesn’t stop Imogene and Anora from becoming friends. It also doesn’t stop them from becoming more than friends. And when Anora’s husband finds them, all hell breaks loose, leading to murder and a very un-nuclear family road trip…
Starring David Lynch favourite, Laura Harring (Mulholland Drive ), Drool is a brilliantly subversive, often hilarious film that asks the question “How far are you willing to go to enjoy the love you deserve?”
