Itching to ditch their lame small-town lives, Esper (writer-director Matt Farnsworth) and Donna (Diane Foster) begin dealing crystal meth, but their risky ploy only grows more dangerous once they start getting high on their own supply. When the couple goes on the run, Esper's mother (Rosanna Arquette) and a local parole officer (Michael T. Weiss) team up to hunt them down, kill Esper and collect the insurance policy left by his deceased father.
