They drive a Jeep and pull a pop tent, and decide to shoot a film along the way. Nothing much happens except that they develop a beautiful friendship and debunk quite a few taboos. Two Straight Girls at a Queer Fest is like Seinfeld meets Thelma & Louise, except for the bad ending. It also tackles the subject of mental illness and plays on the boundaries of true and false.
