Plot

In the bustling hub of Chicago, Sam Basilli, a final year Political Science major, is nursing the wounds of a dual breakup. He's lost both a lover and a best friend in Malcolm, his ex-boyfriend. To protect himself from further heartache, he makes a solemn vow: never date friends again. His college companion, Stasia Cooper, presents a stark contrast to him. Despite the world's perceptions, she consistently shuns commitment, declaring she has no boyfriend. Cue Valentine's weekend, Sam is thrown into a daunting escapade. He's asked to do a favor for friends: to chauffeur Harry Turpin, his high school tormentor and fellow college student, on a nine-hour journey to their shared hometown. Initially, Sam's perception of Harry remains unchanged, a self-centered, immature womanizer who leaves a trail of heartbroken girlfriends in his wake. However, halfway through their trip, Harry reveals a startling truth - he's pansexual. This revelation paves the way for a profound conversation about their lives, altering the remainder of their drive. Over time, their relationship oscillates between friendship and something more intense, reminiscent of his past with Malcolm and present with Stasia. Sam finds himself grappling with burgeoning feelings for Harry, questioning his vow against dating friends. As the tension mounts, stoic Sam might just find his emotions taking the wheel, steering him through a maze of both euphoric and painful experiences. Will he yield to these emotions or hold steadfast to his promise? It's a journey of self-discovery, acceptance, and the complexities of love.
