Description:
The Libner brothers' story unfolds through an adventurous road trip that tests their familial bonds in a time of great social change. Each brother has forged their own unique path: Marvin, the eldest, serves with dedication in the Air Force; Buddy, the middle child, harbors quiet dreams and aspirations; Bobby, the youngest, finds himself entangled within the confines of reform school. Once a household consumed by discord, they've since grown apart as adults, their relationships strained by the passage of time and the weight of unresolved conflicts.Enter Fred Libner, a man both tough and eccentric, who sets his sons on a mission in the sweltering summer of 1963: deliver a 1954 Cadillac from Detroit to Miami. This vehicle was bought not for themselves but as a symbol of love for their mother, Betty. As they embark on this journey, the brothers find themselves navigating more than just the winding roads ahead; they must navigate their own complex emotions and unravel the knots of past arguments and misunderstandings.Their trek serves as an exploration of family, of male identity, and of the power of forgiveness and connection amidst adversity. Alongside the task of preserving their precious Cadillac from the rigors of the road, the three brothers learn that there is much to be gained through rekindling their sibling bonds in a summer that will forever change them.
