Perfect Dead Girls

There are three rules… 

1. You can do anything you want 
2. You can’t leave until they let you 
3. They are always watching 

In a purgatory plastered with graffiti, glitter, and teenage angst, two young girls find themselves trapped after their sudden deaths only to discover that they are not alone: something else is here, watching them, deciding who gets to leave and who gets left behind. Haunted by their deaths and the lives they’ve lost, the girls must battle each other and their own demons in a fragmented collage of memories, music, and Y2K pop culture to face what they’re truly willing to do to escape. 

Perfect Dead Girls is a gruesome yet tender celebration of the joys and paranoias of girlhood, and an exploration of how young women survive in systems that ask them to tear each other down.

Perfect Dead Girls is part of the Traverse's £1 Ticket Project.
