Robyn breaks out of juvenile detention to see her dying grandfather Ringer, only to discover that he wants her help to escape the hospital and return home to do one last thing.
On a search for the truth behind a mysterious family secret, Robyn, a young Aboriginal, escapes from detention and reluctantly teams up with awkward teenager Gidge. Together they flee her small central desert community on a perilous journey across the outback, finding answers and learning some hard life lessons along the way. Hot on their heels are Maxine, a sex trafficker whose taxi Robyn stole, and Gidge's domineering father Robert, a fraudulent preacher.
