Scrubbers background

Scrubbers

A feminist reinterpretation of the women's prison film genre, this movie explores the complex dynamics of violence and relationships between women without resorting to voyeurism.

Two girls, Annetta and Carol, escape from a borstal for different reasons. Annetta wants to visit her baby daughter in a convent, while Carol hopes to be recaptured and sent to a closed borstal to be with her girlfriend Doreen.
