Description
Sex, drugs, and rock 'n' roll—and the Arpanet? It's June 1967.
On the way to his wedding in Berkeley, a strait-laced computer engineer working on a Defense Department contract picks up a free-spirited hitchhiker. She's carrying five pounds of Afghan hash which she intends to deliver to the Grateful Dead, He's been wrongly identified as a Soviet sympathizer. Within twelve hours of their arrival in San Francisco, the duo encounter a notoriously groovy drug-dealer, lose their car and their money, are targeted for assassination by a hypochondriacal KGB agent, pick up an FBI tail, and are kidnapped by an auto thief searching for his runaway daughters.
Join Elliot Ames and Morning Star McGovern on a trip down the rabbit-hole that was the Summer of Love.
