Synopsis

Saira, a queer space princess, is driven from her privileged life and embarks on a galactic quest to try and save her bounty hunter ex-girlfriend from the Straight White Maliens, a nostalgic faction of the patriarchy, now relegated to the sidelines. Winner of the Teddy Award at the Berlinale, this hilarious Australian animated film takes on heteronormativity and gender stereotypes through wit and surreal comedy.
