Violet (Alexis Bledel, Sin City) and Daisy (Saoirse Ronan, Hanna) are a pair of gum-cracking assassins who casually snuff out crime figures in New York City, distracted only by the fact that a concert by their favorite pop idol Barbie Sunday has suddenly been canceled.

Determine to raise cash for a pair of Barbie Sunday dresses, the duo takes on a new hit job, only to face a reckoning in the form of a mysterious loner (James Gandolfini, The Sopranos). He catapults the girls into an odyssey far beyond the world of Barbie Sunday and bullets for pay.

From Academy Award winning screenwriter Geoffrey Fletcher (Precious) comes a mesmerizing hybrid of New York City crime fable and powerful coming-of-age tale. In Violet & Daisy, three lost souls face their most formidable foes - themselves.
