'The sh*t that happens is not meant to be understood,' says lonely truck driver Eddie. The chewing gum and shoe string holding Eddie's head up is beginning to wane- teetering him on the edge of devastation.

The dark loneliness of long, distant drives in his vocation were nothing compared to his present despair.
