Synopsis: | Mary 'Motorhead' is in prison. She lies on her bed reading, while scenes of the outdoor world as seen from the window of a car are projected onto the wall behind her. She is doing six years for stabbing her husband, Red, in the head with a knife. History is invention, she tells us, a story made up based on sometimes scant knowledge of the available facts. Each of us has a known history and a secret one. The secret history, she explains, is what really happened - what was going on inside - something that regular history, or reportage, or maybe representation, can never really know. So, Mary invites us to hear her secret history. A profound, honest and hilarious portrayal of a woman who is pushed to the edge by her circumstances, bet succeeds in finding the road back to herself. | |||||
