Freewheeling

Synopsis

The film follows Nat, a confused young man of about twenty. He sets off from home, and his recently widowed mother, in a camper van that he and his father had been restoring. He is tricked into giving a lift to two ageing hippies, Jack and Abigail, to their home in Devon. The three grow closer as the journey continues and Nat's naiveté and fear of the future subside. He decides to stay for a few days and walks on to the beach, aware of his freedom.
