'Tony leaves Melbourne, hitching north in search of an old girlfriend. He has just done six years in Pentridge, during which time his mother committed suicide. He has a dog named Billy, a sawn-off shotgun in his bag, and two big scars on his face, courtesy of a 'reunion' with Jerry Maquire, one of his old criminal mates. At a country-town café, Tony gets a ride with Sam, a fashionable young woman driving a 1938 Buick. They head to Sydney together, but he resists getting involved. He wants to find Anna, the woman he thinks he still loves. Sam is unhappily involved with a Sydney fashion photographer. When Tony finds out Anna has moved to Queensland, he and Sam head north again in the Buick. When they eventually find where Anna lives, Tony realises he's in love with Sam.'
