Nineteen-year-old Poppy Simpson (Libby Hunsdale, Netflix’s Down for Love) refuses to be defined by Down syndrome and is determined to be in the driver’s seat of her own life. Unfortunately, her ambition to become an automobile mechanic has been stalled by her protective brother, who has reluctantly taken over the family’s repair shop business. It’s not until she teams up with an old friend who needs his car fixed for an upcoming burnout competition that her plans finally get back on track.
