Joanne is just a book store owner to the outside world, but the Conspiracy knows better. She poses a threat. She is a signpost: a quiet leader who is getting close to being herself. When they take her away to break her and make her fit in, they find out that Joanne is so much more than she knew. Joanne is a one-room, one-character thriller with a feminist point of view. It's a modern story about a rite of passage that most women have to go through to become whole people: how do you be yourself when there is so much hatred and misogyny? (both overt and institutionalized). It is also the first woman to star in a one-person film, which is a movie with only one character on screen.
