As long as the booth stays full, the diner stays quiet. The night it goes empty, it starts looking for someone new to fill the seat.

Partono su un vecchio van, pieni di entusiasmo e aspettative diverse: chi vuole libertà, chi scappare da una famiglia ingombrante, chi cerca un futuro che non riesce a immaginare. Tra loro ci sono anche due ragazzi che si piacciono da tempo, ma non hanno mai avuto il coraggio di dirlo. Durante il viaggio tra deserti, diner e motel, l'avventura si trasforma presto in una prova di amicizia. Litigi, segreti e gelosie mettono il gruppo a dura prova, fino a farli quasi separare.

Quando arrivano a Santa Monica, non sono più gli stessi: alcuni restano amici, altri prendono strade diverse, ma tutti portano con sé un'estate che ha cambiato le loro vite per sempre.
