“A
feminist masterpiece and more relevant than ever” -THE GUARDIAN
Socially
awkward Muriel Heslop (Toni Collette) wants nothing more than to get
married. Unfortunately, thanks to her oppressive politician father (Bill
Hunter), Muriel has never even been on a date. Ostracised by her more
socially adept friends, Muriel runs into fellow outcast Rhonda (Rachel
Griffiths), and the two move from their nowhere town of Porpoise Spit to
the big city of Sydney, where Muriel begins the arduous task of
redesigning her life to match her fantasies.
