The film tells the story of Straight's six-week odyssey, as he resolves to reconcile with his ailing brother. He hasn't spoken to him in over a decade. Since his driver's license has long been revoked and he's visually impaired, he decides to hit the road in the only vehicle available to him—a small tractor-trailer. He travels 300 miles along local roads, through the fields and meadows of Iowa and Wisconsin. He drives slowly, so to speak, savoring the journey, like Goethe's wandering Wilhelm Meister, not so much learning about life as recalling it and organizing the most important events. Driving slowly, he can admire the changing landscape and contemplate sunsets, has time to chat with the people he meets, and at night, he stops wherever dusk happens to find him—at the edge of a forest or field. He is free—living life to the fullest, in his own way and at his own pace.
