This sounds a bit like the plot to the hokey Zach Snyder egopiece Sucker Punch (2011), in which the main girl finds the resolve she needs to carry on in the real world, inside the fantasy world she inhabits where she and her friends are badasses in sexy clothing. I always got the feeling that movie was teasing something interesting to say, but fumbling the ball in the delivery of the message.
