Perfect Sisters
It's the story of two teenage girls who have been abused for a long time. It seems that the sisters Sandra and Pete discovered that they can rely on each other completely. Things change completely when addicted mother Linda plans to transfer one of them with her lustful lover, who specializes in the abuse of two children. Eventually, Sandra and Pete plan to recruit classmates to mercilessly kill her mother.
