Synopsis by Eleanor Mannikka
In this youth comedy, Nicole (Margaret Currie) is a member of the Cherry Suicide rock band currently playing in Boston. She welcomes her sister Samantha (Katherine Harrison) on a short vacation visit. Martin (Garth McLean) falls for Samantha after he meets her and one thing leads to another. Soon the whole lot of them are heading south on a lark. During this "road trip" they meet all sorts of characters, such as a tent full of religious revivalists, and they are chased by some inept jewel thieves.
