After an eight-year estrangement, a vivacious Cuban mother reunites with her lonely, half-Jewish teenage daughter on an impromptu cross-country road trip. Starting in Philadelphia and ending in Yellowstone's Hayden Valley, their journey provokes them to finally voice the tension of different cultural identities and resentments harbored about their failed relationship. As they unpack their individual baggage about being "outsiders," they discover a commonality they never knew they had.
