It’s him, her, and 3000 miles to California. Dillon, like so many others before him, packs his bags and heads out West to start a new life. Kerry takes a break from her life to see him off: together they traverse an America abounding with wonder and thousands of answers. Dillon loves trivia and constantly shares his “Did you know that...?” anecdotes to fill the air in a car lacking a radio. America serves as the background, offering an ideal game board for “Guess what they filmed here?” The duo is in no hurry, and they go off the beaten path and stop anywhere there may be something to see, even if it’s only a suburban lawn or a miniature Eiffel Tower topped with a gigantic cowboy hat.
Kyle Smith grew up in Columbia, Missouri. He studied film production and criticism. His debut film, the 60-minute football comedy Turkey Bowl was very well received at SXSW in 2011; indiewire.com proclaimed him ‘the next Robert Altman’.
