A frenetic, surrealist odyssey that uses absurdist humor and bizarre imagery to critique authority and convention through the lens of a couple's chaotic escape.

A young bride flees the ceremony with a stranger and, together, they set off on an epic journey though increasingly bizarre lands. They encounter talking animals and mournful exhibitionists, converse with a discoursing rock, journey through a surrealist's psychedelic hotel, instigate a prison riot, escape from naked cannibals living in a tree, and battle a wind-up midget dictator!
