Rose

Rose is a hopeful woman broken by drugs, prostitution and Blondie, the Czar of Hellville. To support her habit, Rose finds herself and her six year old daughter at Hellville's mercy. When Rose betrays Blondie, she and her daughter endure many hardships, including the fight to protect themselves from Blondie's brutal iron grip. Rose, Ellie and Tony, an imperfect little family bonded through pain and suffering struggle to escape to find a better part of the imperfect world to live in together.

My take

A raw, unflinching portrait of survival and maternal love in the darkest circumstances. This is for viewers who want stories that don't look away—gritty, heartbreaking, and ultimately about the fragile bonds that keep us human.
