Claire Barrow’s husband is cheating on her; and would be
photographer Thom Colvin can’t sell his work. The illegal cab he owns is not
making enough money to even keep a roof over his head when these two mismatched
people find themselves together on a cross country trip to scatter Claire’s
recently deceased father’s ashes to the wind.
Claire has everything, a successful life and husband, while
Thom can’t get off the ground. His past relationships have failed and his
parents have no idea what he really does for a living. When Claire finds her
husband with a co-worker in a compromising state, she decides to chuck it all
and grabs the first cab she sees; which belongs to Thom. Instructing him to
drive in no particular direction, the two begin a series of misadventures which
take them to Las Vegas and ultimately on to the West Coast, where Claire is
re-united with her sisters and their father’s ashes are scattered.
But what happens when Claire’s husband arrives, whisking her
back to New York, leaving Thom alone and a bit broken from the journey?
Deciding that he must continue on his own, he remains in California. But Claire
has trouble relinquishing the new freedoms she has found with Thom, and is
faced with a very big decision. Will she remain in her present circumstances,
or take a chance on Thom? This is a quirky, off beat film which will leave you
smiling about what I label the “human condition.”
