The Road Trip Agreement

Carol Lavoie is a vibrant, free-spirited creator whose dreams of living life on the open road are crumbling under the pressure of dwindling engagement. To save her career, she needs a miracle, and it arrives in the form of an unlikely partnership with Ruby Hayashi, a polished, minimalist vlogger who has mastered the art of curated perfection but lost her creative spark in the process. The two opposites strike a bargain: a cross-country road trip through the breathtaking Oregon coast, fueled by a fake-dating scheme designed to keep their followers glued to their screens. As they navigate the cramped quarters of a camper van, the lines between performance and reality begin to blur. Their fans are obsessed, rooting for every staged smile and manufactured moment, but off-camera, the friction between Carol’s messy spontaneity and Ruby’s disciplined control begins to ignite into something far more volatile and authentic. Steeped in the modern pressure of social media stardom, this charming romance explores the thin line between building an audience and building a life. As the miles fly by, both women must confront whether their viral success is worth the cost of the truth—and if the love they’ve been faking is actually the one thing they can’t afford to lose.
