What is the subject of this film? A working-class Italian-American bouncer becomes the driver of an African-American classical pianist on a tour of venues across the American South in the 1960s. Faced with bigotry, danger, and surprising compassion and comedy, they must put their differences aside in order to live and prosper on a once-in-a-lifetime voyage.
