Two strangers, two very different lives. A chance to escape, or is it?

Madi, a former actress, needs to escape her lonely London life. She's started to forget things and has a strong sense that she's being watched.

Prue, on the other hand, feels suffocated by her claustrophobic village life, especially when she's humiliated in the most public way. She's desperate for anonymity, whatever the cost.

When Madi and Prue meet by chance, they both see it as an opportunity to escape their current situations. They decide to go on a road trip together, hoping to find a new life and a fresh start.

As they travel through different places, they learn more about each other and their pasts. They discover that they have more in common than they thought, and that they may be able to help each other overcome their challenges.

However, their journey is not without its dangers. They encounter a mysterious man who seems to be following them, and they begin to suspect that they may be in over their heads.

As the stakes get higher, Madi and Prue must find the courage and resilience to move on and face their fears. They learn that sometimes the biggest challenges in life can also be the most rewarding, and that true friendship and family can help us overcome even the most difficult obstacles.

In the end, Madi and Prue find a new sense of purpose and a new beginning. They realize that their lives are not as perfect as they thought, but that they are strong and capable of overcoming anything that comes their way.
