It's 1969. A spur-of-the-moment road trip. A borrowed car. A dubious destination. Two flaky hippies. What could possibly go wrong? Everything.Cruiser and Peanut, two aimless Miami stoners, are returning a car for a tourist from Kentucky who's gone romping on his new lover's yacht. Arriving at their destination, the pair stumble onto a multiple murder. Before long, the duo are on the lam as the prime suspects with an unhinged FBI agent and a mob contract killer hot on their trail.Nestled slyly into this madcap road trip is the cultural awakening of two young Miami refugees, one from Cuba, the other from Georgia. Being a hippie is more a fashion statement than a lifestyle for Cruiser and Peanut, the offspring of working-class parents who, like most migrants, came to Miami seeking a better life. After venturing outside their inner-city world for the first time, the pair discover a form of hippie heresy: The flower child ethos of dropping out and going back to the land feels less like liberation and more like a step back to the hardships their parents fled in Havana and Waycross.
