Later, in order to get to know him better, Fleisher decided to make a documentary in which the pair would set out for a road trip across the Ukraine - Hutz's home country. But while Fleisher has taken the trip on hopes of rekindling a fleeting romance, Hutz is out to discover his roots and draw inspiration from the culture he so stridently tries to preserve. So how is it that two people who are stuck in the same car together can be on such divergent paths, and what happens when each one is so devoted to their own journey that they become blind to everything else around them? ~ Jason Buchanan, Rovi
