Maureen, a teenage girl immersed in London’s 1960s Mod scene, dreams of something greater than the world of fashion and pop music. She craves adventure and to break away from her mundane job in the city. Inspired by the iconic Fry’s Turkish Delight TV commercial, Maureen convinces her best friend Sherry to embark on a daring journey toward the Middle East. Nearly six decades later, the two women reflect on their unforgettable adventures and mishaps during the golden age of hitchhiking.
