Folk musicians Anna and Joel (Handmade Moments) drive their custom-built tour bus from Arkansas to California. They perform shows on the solar-powered stage on the roof and fuel their engine with used cooking oil. When two cars smash into them head-on, their dream of driving the bus to Argentina is shattered: Joel ends up in a wheelchair for four months and the bus is completely destroyed. With the support of their fans, family and friends, the couple slowly rebuilds their life and career.
