A gentle, meandering ride through sun-bleached landscapes, capturing the quiet thrill of youthful wandering and unexpected encounters.

Directed by

Overview
Two childhood friends head out from San Francisco one summer to see how far they can go hitching rides by freight train. Together they embark on a dizzying, back road journey through the Southwest, armed with only camcorders, blankets and a good book to read. The two dodge train yard cops and encounter a colorful cast of off beat characters on their quest for the perfect train, along the way witnessing a rarely seen side of the American landscape.
