Asked by his brother to help out with a dangerous job, Danny reluctantly agrees, meeting a mysterious girl in the process. And then fate leads the two on a trip to the suburbs. This love story is notable for its delightful plot and stylish look.

Danny is an aspiring chef, whose hustler brother asks him to complete a job for him. It all seems simple enough: meet a driver with a briefcase, proceed to a rendezvous spot and exchange one briefcase for another. But Danny swaps the wrong bag, sending him and the driver Ellie on a two-day odyssey through the boroughs and suburbs of New York City to get the missing briefcase back. They travel by train, by foot, and by stolen bicycle. They break into a house. They tell half-truths about themselves. And they are drawn to one another.
