Storyline
| Plot Summary |
London, 1962. Two teenage girls - Ginger and Rosa -- are inseparable; they play truant together, discuss religion, politics and hairstyles, and dream of lives bigger than their mothers' frustrated domesticity. But, as the Cold War meets the sexual revolution, and the threat of nuclear holocaust escalates, the lifelong friendship of the two girls is shattered - by the clash of desire and the determination to survive.

| Quotes |
[last lines]
Ginger: [sitting writing in notebook] We had a dream... that we would always be best friends. When we were born... for some it was the end. Now it seems there may not be tomorrow. But despite the horror... and the sorrow... I love our world. I want us all to live. Now, Rosa, you've asked me to forgive. One day, if Mum survives this bitter night... then we shall meet again, and I will say... I loved you, Rosa. Don't you see? But we are different. You dream of everlasting love. Not me. Because what really matters, is to live. And if we do... there will be nothing to forgive. Roland: [sitting nearby] What are you writing? Ginger: Oh, a poem... about the future. Roland: I'm sorry, Ginger. I'm so sorry. Ginger: [continues to writing] But I'll forgive you anyway. See more » |
