Storyline:
One impulsive idea... Two old friends... Hundreds of miles of unfinished business.
Rickey, a vibrant, unpredictable free spirit, shows up out of nowhere to pull his old friend Glenn—now a stable, married man—out of his routine and onto the open road. The plan? A spontaneous trip from Los Angeles to Sacramento with no rules, no real destination… just a chance to break free and reconnect.
As the road winds forward, the pair relive old memories, confront unresolved tension, and share laughs and awkward detours that dig deeper than either of them expected. Along the way, they meet new faces, revisit ghosts from the past, and question where life has led them.
Sacramento is a bittersweet, offbeat buddy dramedy that balances humor with heartfelt reflection—a journey of friendship, growth, and the realization that sometimes, you have to leave home to find out what you really miss.
