A vibrant, exuberant musical celebration of 1960s counterculture and youthful freedom, anchored by genuine warmth and the bonds formed between a naive draftee and his newfound hippie family.

Upon receiving his draft notice and leaving his family ranch in Oklahoma, Claude heads to New York and befriends a tribe of long-haired hippies on his way to boot camp.
