San Fernando Valley, winter of 2004. Sixteen year-old Maeve runs away from her group home in Lancaster, and falls into a relationship with an older man who claims to be the legendary, missing-from-the-scenes, rock 'n roll frontman, Axl Rose. Months later, a very-pregnant Maeve is determined to track down the "rock star", only to find him living in a two-bedroom tract home in Reseda with his emotionally unstable girlfriend, Missy. In a surreal, rainy-night encounter, the three characters confront one another as they struggle to distinguish fact from fiction, past from the present, and dream-life from waking reality.
