Ronnie’s life seems to have just a few simple pleasures; his racing car, beer, girls and his job as a helping hand on construction sites. But he and his friends stop yelling and bragging when their unsung hero Leon drives his car into a tree. Then everything in Ronnie’s life accelerates and turns upside down in just a few days.

And because Ronnie has difficulty expressing his feelings, those days almost strangle him. His pneumatic drill says more than Ronnie himself. Leon’s funeral is planned for the same weekend as the annual fair. What used to be a welcome break from everyday life has turned into a frightening festival. A man working at one of the fair attractions has such charm and drives an exuberant car that Ronnie and his friends feel intimidated. Even Ronnie can not escape his allure.
