When aspiring rapper Sol is discovered by a group of Gen-Z musicians at a party, he joins their tour through the heart of Texas and embarks on a once-in-a-lifetime adventure. As Sol and the musicians head out West, they bond over shared pains and longings from the lives they left behind. Vibrant and bold, yet sensitive and vulnerable, these musicians pour their souls into the music they create together. The novelty of Sol's newfound family fades as the demons Sol left behind come back to haunt him, including his guilt over abandoning his ailing friend. His sense of self is put to the ultimate test as he seeks refuge from the rootlessness and loss that has defined his existence.
