In the summer of 2002, Brendan Tibbet, a filmmaker whose luck has run low, takes his 10-year-old son Brenlyn on a road trip across America. Following a 1930s travel guide Brendan purchased at a yard sale, the two-week trek from LA to New Hampshire hits the iconic stops along the way, Yosemite, the Great Salt Lake, Yellowstone and Mt. Rushmore and the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, replete with wild exploits, but it’s the interior journey that is enlightening, deeply poignant and life-changing.
