Plot
Dean (Louie Sabatasso) starts the film fresh out of rehab on Venice Beach with no real answer of who to be or where to go except a strange affinity for Coney Island. The one last person he wanted to call or expect help from was his estranged and somewhat successful older brother, Neal (Gary Kohn). Prepared to leave Dean in Downtown, Los Angeles to fend for himself and probably overdose in a drug dealer’s loft, Neal reluctantly takes Dean with him on a road trip to Nebraska. Along the way, the brothers encounter Phoenix (Arroyn Ambrose) in a Las Vegas diner who is desperately trying to get away from an armed ex-con and hitches a ride under duress in Neal’s 1974 Bronco. Phoenix allows the brothers to feign tolerance of one another for a while as Neal consistently chides Dean for his troubled junkie past. Neal’s one goal is to get to Nebraska to save his job as a concert promoter. Phoenix provides Dean with a reprieve from his addictive personality while simultaneously having to do that which is most difficult for her, trust another. Neal and Dean must reconcile their differences to care for this complicated girl.
