Trailer
Music, discipline, generosity, volatility, and photography become the language through which a son tries to understand the man beside him.
Contradictory truths can occupy the same person — and the same passenger compartment.
The story
Years of travel in a white Astro van become an education in contradiction: a man capable of enormous generosity and sudden volatility, observed from the passenger seat by the son who would inherit both his restlessness and his way of seeing.
Act I
He trades the last departure gate for the open road, and a son learns the shape of a life measured in service calls.
Act II
Inviolable rules, broadcast radio, and the long apprenticeship of proximity.
Act III
A sushi bar, a tip jar, and the warmth he could hand to strangers.
Act IV
Belonging and argument and the quiet shame that rides home in the dark.
Act V
A camera, a road, and the way of seeing a son finally inherits.
