## Synopsis (in-house rewrite)

John Waters returns to the screen with a film that knows exactly what it is. A blow to the head turns a repressed woman into a nymphomaniac who attracts the attention of a "sexual healer." It all leads to a battle for the soul of Baltimore. Mission accomplished, I guess?

**Mood tags**: playful, sexy, unhinged
