AbstractHistoryArchive Description
'Set in a hippy utopia, Strange Fruit explores the lives of Venus and Mouse, a couple of wild children of the 70’s dropout generation, as they wrestle with their sexuality and lack of boundaries.
'When Gripper, an older dope grower with tales of the world, turns his attention to Venus, all hell breaks loose. Paradise becomes a war zone and freedom becomes a trap.'
