In 1962, in a small California town, a group of teenagers spend their last summer night before leaving for college. Between car races, flirting, rock music, and conversations about the future, each of them experiences this evening as a turning point. Curt, the dreamer, hesitates to leave his hometown; Steve and Laurie, the perfect couple, see their relationship tested; John, the "dragster king," faces a mysterious rival; and Toad, the shyest, tries to seduce a beautiful stranger. A nostalgic ode to American youth in the 1960s.
