No Place is a road picture drama a/la Badlands meets The Wizard of Oz.

In  the New Mexico desert, two desperate teen runaways flee their traumatic  pasts trying to outrun the law until they find that the home they seek  is within each other. 

After  discovering she is pregnant with his child, 15 year old Mary kills her  father, taking off with his pistol and cash. 17 year old Joe has just  accidentally poisoned his obese mother. He’s got a car but no gas,  she’s got cash and needs a ride. They take off together toward Las Vegas to make  it big. But they share a moment of recognition when it is revealed that  they are each fgitives wanted for murder. Mary’s uncles and the law are hot on  their heels but the teens disguise themselves as newlyweds to great  effect. Joe discovers that he and Mary have matching birthmarks which  complete a circle when her hand is placed over his heart. He vows to  take care of Mary and the baby and buy themselves a home of their own.  But just as they embrace, Mary’s Uncle Jimmy guns them down. With her  hand over his heart, the bullet pierces the circle and our twins of  misfortune are swept into a swirling black abyss with a light at the end  growing ever bigger, a doctor’s hands reach into the abyss coaxing an  infant out of a womb. He slaps the baby’s behind and she spits out a  bullet. Joe and Mary have just been reborn as one person. 

Through darkness we must go to see the light again and sometimes two equals one.
