A story of first love between Maren, a young woman learning how to survive on the margins of society, and Lee, an intense and disenfranchised drifter. The pair meet and join together for a thousand-mile odyssey which takes them through the back roads, hidden passages, and trap doors of Ronald Reagan’s America. But despite their best efforts, all roads lead back to their terrifying pasts and to a final stand which will determine whether their love can survive their otherness.
Director Luca Guadagnino reunites with Timothée Chalamet – the breakout star of Call Me by Your Name – for an altogether different film about love, reimagining the road movie romance as a grisly horror story.
