Three years ago, Will Ferrell was filming a movie when he received a most surprising email: his‬ dear friend of nearly 30 years was coming out to him as a trans woman.‬ That friend was Harper Steele, a writer he met on his first day at‬‭ Saturday Night Live‬‭ back in 1995.‬ From that fateful first meeting in the halls of 30 Rock, Will knew he had found a match made in‬ comedy, and their friendship and creative partnership would only continue to grow over the next 3‬ decades.‬ In this intimate, honest, and heartfelt documentary, Will and Harper hit the open road together to‬ process this new stage of their friendship and reintroduce Harper to the country that she loves --‬ this time, as herself. Over 16 days, the two drive from New York to LA, visiting stops that are‬ meaningful to them, to their friendship, and to America. Through laughter, tears, and many cans of‬ Pringles, they push past their comfort zones as they re-examine their relationships to these‬ spaces, and to each other, in this new light.‬
