Overview
"When a young man feels that life is trapping him into an ever smaller existence, he drives west across America in search of something that will reignite joy in his life. Along the way, he meets two old friends, both of whom lack a clear view of reality. Though they sense this in the other, they cannot see it in themselves. As the trio ventures farther west through striking landscapes, they meet a young woman intent on destroying goodness in the world and an old woman intent on preserving goodness. Ultimately, the characters must try to learn the true essence of themselves if they are to make change in their life rather than let the world around them determine their change." -- Abstract
