Portland, Oregon, 1971. Bob Hughes is the charismatic leader of a peculiar quartet, formed by his wife, Dianne, and another couple, Rick and Nadine, who skillfully steal from drugstores and hospital medicine cabinets in order to appease their insatiable need for drugs. But neither fun nor luck last forever.
A jittery, magnetic energy drives this portrait of a small-time pill thief and his makeshift family. Their reckless spree through the rainy streets of Portland captures the hollow thrill of a lifestyle fueled entirely by chemical dependency.
