IHBM7.5Very good

Beatrice is a blabbermouth and a so-called billionaire countess who likes to believe shes in intimacy with world leaders. Donatella is a young quiet tattooed woman, locked in her own mystery. They are both patients of a mental institution and subject to custodial measures.

My review · Reviewed 10/02/2021

This is a quirky little buddy road-trip movie. I really enjoyed the main characters - there was a definite chemistry between the leads and the writing avoided creating stereotypes. What was left was something unexpected - empathy for the characters and quite a bit of sweetness after the journey was over.
