Summary
An aspiring young writer in postwar New York falls in with a charismatic ex-con and his free-spirited wife, and the trio embark on a series of restless cross-country road trips fueled by jazz, drugs, and sexual experimentation. Based on Jack Kerouac's Beat Generation novel, the film follows their search for meaning, freedom, and literary inspiration as their bonds are tested by the cost of life on the move.
