A screwball heist comedy that follows a mismatched group of misfits on a chase across Americana, balancing playful absurdity with low-stakes thrills.

While searching for a small fortune of embezzled money, an ex-con, a small-time bandleader, his doting wife and a kooky drifter find themselves being followed. Their chase takes them to trailer camps, bingo halls, laundromats and ultimately, a showdown with a group of unconventional bad guys.
