The Sheffield culture guide written by in-the-know locals

Furiosa

Snatched during childhood, young Furiosa falls into the hands of a great biker horde, led by the warlord Dementus.

Sweeping through the post-apocalyptic Wasteland, they come to the Citadel, presided over by the Immortan Joe.

As the two tyrants fight for dominance, Furiosa soon finds herself in a nonstop battle to make her way home.

From original Mad Max (1979) director George Miller, Furiosa tells the origin of the fierce character introduced in the 2015 hit film Mad Max: Fury Road.
