Christine, a young woman, has escaped the oppression of a family member. As they endeavor to stay beneath society's radar, Christine (in disguise) and Socrates spend the summer together bicycling through the mountains of California and the old gold-rush towns of Nevada, panning for gold. Along their journey, Socrates shares his wealth of wisdom, teaching Christine a new way of thinking.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e As suspense builds, Christine and Socrates eventually discover they can't escape their pasts forever.
