1981 • France • Directed by Jean Rollin
On the run from an asylum for the insane, a feisty young girl and her forlorn female companion embark on a surreal journey with a group of travelling erotic dancers. Wandering from the fantastic to the farcical and back again, The Escapees contains all the magic and fairy-tale qualities of cult films like Fascination (1979) and Requiem for a Vampire (1971) and has everything one expects from a Rollin film, including two beautiful young women, startling scenes of death, burlesque shows in a junkyard and erotic lesbian encounters with Brigitte Lahaie!
