She just needs a minute.

Synopsis

The Finger Wife is a domestic horror story with a delicious sense of humor - part 2D hand-drawn animation, part stop-motion, and all bizarro feminist propaganda! It’s 1975. A smart, ambitious woman (The Wife) is stuck in the kitchen. When feisty, martini-drinking Betty steps out of a 1950s cookbook, The Wife is confronted with what she really wants out of life (it's not to make another meatloaf). Faced with Betty’s tough love and in a desperate effort to find one goddamn minute for herself, The Wife takes matters into her own hands, with gleefully horrific results.
