After losing everything, Desiree Wood takes a second lease on life as a long-haul trucker. While she struggles to balance life on the road with her ambitions as the head of a driver-led movement run from the cab of her truck, Desiree and her sisterhood of truckers rally against the crushing forces of an industry that is indifferent to their survival.
