Two Raging Grannies Trailer (2014)

Trailer for Two Raging Grannies.

Two raging grannies on their mobility scooters set out on a journey across the USA. They travel from Seattle to Wall Street on a quest to find out whether perpetual economic growth is possible.

Shirley (90) and Hinda (84) grew up during the great depression. They have always been engaged in social and political issues. In fact Shirley has been in jail around 12 times for her activism. The current financial crisis, the global warming and their worry about the grandchildren's future have made them question the common worldview that we need perpetual economic growth. This is the starting point for a journey coast to coast where they're looking for new answers.

This is a film searching for new answers, but also a film about friendship, coming of age, illness and fear of death. Love from the family gives the ladies strength when they are close to giving up. They won’t find a clear solution and simple responses, but looking for an answer is keeping them very much alive.
