Thirteen-year-old Lucas has just returned to school after an accident left him in a wheelchair. He’s feeling uncomfortable and out of place at school, so to raise his spirits, his parents give him a motorized wheelchair as a birthday present. Lucas is disinterested at first, but as a new friendship with his classmate Laís grows, he begins to see the benefits of his new chair as she rides her bicycle alongside him. Laís has never met her father, and when she learns of his possible whereabouts, she and Lucas set off to find him. Facing the open road with only each other to lean on, and encountering various obstacles along the way, the two embark on an epic journey in this warm and heartfelt adventure for the whole family.
