Overview

Bitterly torn between two places, two loves, and two views of love and work, and deeply in debt, facing both financial and emotional bankruptcy, Jack Cade, nicknamed Lover Boy, is on the road to total ruin. The Pandemic and Lockdown have made him feel dispossessed, empty and trapped. Out begging for money and mercy, Lover Boy takes on all comers viciously intent on cancelling him with the violent destruction of body, mind and spirit. When in a moment of distraction, he accidentally joins the Freedom Convoy, he battles against opposing forces for the kind of freedom that leads to a new vision of love and work, and a revolutionary and meaningful way of living.
