Rebel Rebel

When a shared love of Bowie draws Jess to the captivating Astrid, she has no idea that her carefully planned future risks being torn apart…

It’s 2007. Bowie is alive, and Jess is at university with her boyfriend, Robert. Their future together is all planned out, and Jess will never, ever, have to be alone again.

At a party, Jess meets Astrid, a fellow Bowie fan whose world brims with adventure and possibility. Amidst clinking glasses and the infectious rhythm of 'Let’s Dance', she is drawn into Astrid’s orbit. Their friendship blossoms – Astrid, the enigmatic musician, and Jess, the wordsmith. Astrid inspires Jess to explore her own creative aspirations and question the essence of her existence.

But beneath the surface, tensions grow. Robert is uneasy about Astrid's influence, and Astrid can’t understand why Jess stays with him. With the risk of losing it all, Jess finds herself at the crossroads of two worlds – one familiar and safe, the other filled with the intoxicating pull of another path…

As Jess is pulled into a hedonistic adventure that challenges conventions, celebrates the power of female friendship, and champions creativity, she faces a daunting choice. Will she find a way to navigate her dreams and desires before it’s too late?
