A warm, comedic coming-of-age road movie about a gay teen's self-discovery, family conflict, and friendship, driven by humor and heart rather than darkness.

Sixteen year old Rocco's two aims in life are to get laid and to see his favorite pop star in concert with his two best friends. When a bullying incident at school forces Rocco to come out to his divorced middle-class parents their liberal leanings are severely tested. Luckily his two friends stand by him and join him in running away from home (in his parents stolen car) to see their favorite singer in concert, followed hot on their heels by his neurotic mother and eccentric gran.
