Martin and Margot have been writers since they could write and lovers since college. They enjoy an adventurous life together and travel through Guatemala in an old rickety jeep that Margot constantly needs to fix. They fuel their relationship and writing with internal chaos and inconformity, hoping to eventually achieve success. However, they are soon confronted with responsibility they cannot run away from, and are faced with choices that may tear them apart in a way that neither Margot’s levelheadedness, nor Martin’s optimism can fix.
