At first Richard a disabled filmmaker has a dim view of this. A massive 3000-mile odyssey from Portland Oregon to Austin Texas in an old school bus run on stolen cooking oil helps change his mind but maybe not for the better. You will never regret watching this fascinating journey. Shouldn't we all run away and join the circus? Could you survive it?
