Plot
A teenage outcast road movie, Jimmy and Judy follows a pair of outsiders who fall in love and out of control as they travel across an American landscape dotted with hypocrisy, materialism, drugs and violence.
The film focuses on the classic themes such as adolescent rebellion, love, and anger. Jimmy and Judy are a modern-day Bonnie and Clyde: destructive young lovers who leave the comfort of their suburban community in rural Kentucky in search of a better life.
The film is presented in the form of a video diary from the point of view of the main characters.
