Story Synopsis

Heavenly Creatures is a provocative and thrilling tale based on the true story of a crime that shocked a nation. The story is based on the diaries of Pauline Yvonne Parker kept during 1953 and 1954 in which she recorded her friendship with Juliet Marion Hulme. The diary entries in the movie are in Pauline’s own words. When two very bright teenage girls become inseparable friends and drift off into their own fantasy world, their parents become disturbed and try to separate them. The girls devise a secret plan to stay together—with devastating results. Original visual effects and great performances add to the powerful story to create an unforgettable and thrilling experience.
