A low-key road movie about two misfits on the run through Florida, blending dark comedy with melancholic character study and existential drift.

Cozy, a dissatisfied housewife, meets Lee at a bar. A drink turns into a home break-in, and a gunshot sends them on the run together, thinking they've committed murder.
