Perfect Hair Day

Gina and Babs get more than what they bargained for when they decide to break into a seemingly abandoned luxury mansion. Our two heroes must find a way to escape what turns out to be a mafia kidnapping with little more than the make-up and tools in their travel case. Set in a diasporic suburbia that melds global pop nostalgia with Gulf culture, this domestic, fever dream takes us on an audio-visual journey that pantomimes the convergence between the middle east and the west in today’s ever-globalized world.
