As son of a freewheeling biker mom, Rocky Dennis (Eric Stolz), is accepted without question by his mother's boyfriend's and extended motorcycle family but treated with fear, pity, awkwardness, and teasing by those unaware of his humanity, humor, and intelligence. Rocky's mother, Rusty Dennis, is determined to give Rocky a normal life.
It is the end of the summer of 1979 in Azusa, a lower-middle class section of Los Angeles. With Bob Seeger's "Kathmandu" on the soundtrack the actions pans into the bedroom of Rocky Dennis.
Near the end of the film, Rocky faces the pain of separation from his girlfriend, the collapse of his dream motorcycle trip to Europe with his best friend, Ben, while fighting fierce headaches. He quietly withdraws to his room, and Rocky quietly dies peacefully in his sleep.
