and the backdrop of Breaking Bad" - Metro

When family outcast Lucky Flynn (Tim Minchin, Robin Hood, Californication, Matilda the Musical) learns that his mother is dying, he decides to drive to the other side of Australia to see her, packing nothing but an upright piano for the journey. But his plans are soon turned upside down when he meets the runaway teenager Meg (Milly Alcock, Casting Guild of Australia's 2018 Rising Star Award recipient, Reckoning, A Place to Call Home), who's dealing with some family demons of her own. Together, they forge an unlikely friendship as they embark on a road trip adventure across the beautiful Nullarbor Plains in a race against time.
