In the 1970s, a war veteran named "Doc" is on a journey through the Nevada desert, grappling with his own demons and the monotony of his life. While trying to sell a valuable coin collection left to him by a friend, he crosses paths with a quirky young woman named Wanda, a dreamy and energetic teenager who is in search of her own destiny. The chemistry between them is instant, despite the age difference.
Wanda, with her free spirit and undeniable charm, becomes a spark in Doc's monotonous life. At first, her intentions are quite selfish, as she asks him to take her to the city to find her mother, who left years ago. But as the journey unfolds, they end up forging an unexpected bond, filled with fun and poignant moments that challenge societal norms.
However, their journey is not just a quest for personal connection. They also find themselves embroiled in dangers and unexpected situations that will test their alliance. Set against a retro backdrop and blending comedy and drama, the story explores themes such as loneliness, the search for meaning in life, and the transformative power of unexpected relationships. Not everything is as it seems, and what begins as a simple trip evolves into an emotional odyssey that will change both of them forever.
