Trailer:

Synopsis: An attractive young mother, Erin, hooks up as a stripper at the Eager Beaver, a seedy South Florida nightspot, to earn some fast cash so she can convince a judge that she is a fit mother and provide for her daughter. While shaking her stuff before a decidedly eclectic crowd, including a powerful politician who shows up in ridiculous disguises, she finds the wheels of child-custody justice in Florida are rigged against her, and her low-life former husband is given custody of her daughter. To save her daughter from her ex's scummy lifestyle, Erin "kidnaps" the girl, embarking on a desperate and treacherous course to keep the child. Aided and abetted by her colorful co-workers, most notably a bouncer with get-rich-quick ruses and steely muscles, the sashays and careens the across the corrupt landscape of Southern Florida in an effort to keep her little girl.

Comment: Adapted from Carl Hiaasen's novel.
