Jesco White never had a chance for a normal life, at least not since that first day he discovered that inhaling gasoline fumes made you feel like the pain of everyday existence in the Appalachian Mountains never existed. After years of bouncing between juvenile halls and mental institutions, Jesco discovers that he has a talent, passed down from his daddy: The talent to dance. So he hits the road seeking fortune and fame, but it isn’t too long before his personal demons return with a vengeance. It’s an intense and frightening story, featuring some terrific performances, particularly from Edward Hogg as Jesco and Carrie Fisher as the love of his life, Cilla.
