Plot
Following the passion for country music, Ralph left his father's sheep farm in a remote Australian town, carrying guitars and plane tickets to Nashville, Tennessee. He hopes to ride to Sydney Airport where his takeoff to a successful country/western singer career will hopefully begin. However, his fate and innocence found him piggybacking with a psychotic drug thief named Boyd, and Boyd's dazzling boyfriend, Patsy. The plot is then divided into a series of parallel, flash forward and flashbacks. One describes Ralph's prison after being trapped for drug trafficking. Others followed a dramatic ascent of his career to fame status and the couple between the dynamic Patsy and himself. Both roads eventually took him home, with Ralph therefore becoming more mature and customizable, and with a bag full of experience. At the end of the film, it was stated that Patsy died in a plane crash.
