This free-wheeling, fast-paced drug odyssey -- the speed-addled San Francisco doppelganger of Irvine Welsh's Trainspotting -- features a butch female bike messenger named Jim, an all-girl punk band and the never-ending search for the rush that makes it all worthwhile. Jim's hardcore speed habit means she's headed nowhere fast; when forced to choose between drugs and the girl she loves, disaster and a cross-country road trip follow. |
