A dark coming-of-age tale set in a world of fallen Americana: a Chevy truck, a hot desert, a dog, and a teenage boy set out on the road. Lost on the side of the highway, he is forced to reevaluate himself in a brief, but inescapable confrontation with the cruelty of others.

A young couple on a weekend getaway inadvertently intrude on a criminal couple's remote hideout, triggering a violent battle for freedom. Escape attempts, shifts of power, relationship issues and a looming secret fuel this confrontational encounter.
