There's no place for dreams on the streets of Vegas

A melancholic coming-of-age story about a young drifter navigating the dangerous underbelly of Las Vegas, caught between romantic connection and the harsh realities of survival.

A naive drifter runs away from his army father in hopes of making it on the car racing circuit. In Las Vegas, he meets a young scam artist, who develops a crush on him. He is then introduced to a whole gang led by a young hustler. The racer-to-be then gets a lesson in the wild side, getting involved in one situation after another.
