Plot
A road trip comedy where six teenagers set out on a cross-country journey through the Midwest to find their missing friend. As the miles pass, old tensions from the turbulent transition between high school and college resurface. Somewhere in between growing up and settling down, a backdrop of summer crickets, endless blue skies, and open roads, they confront their memories and missteps that shaped their drifting friendships.
