Spoilers ahead

As David, a former child star with lofty aspirations, stands on the threshold of a significant transformation in his life, he finds himself confronted by the harsh sting of rejection. Just days before he was set to marry Frankie, she inexplicably disappears, leaving him reeling from the emotional devastation. In a bid to elevate his spirits and offer a welcome distraction, his loyal friend Flula suggests an unconventional solution: a seven-day hike through the breathtaking mountains of Oregon, a trip David initially envisioned as a honeymoon with Frankie. At first reluctant, David ultimately embraces the idea, and together with Flula, they embark on a journey that tests their endurance, strengthens their friendship, and provides a backdrop for much-needed introspection.
