Based on a true story. This isNapoleon Dynamite crossed with The Hudsucker Proxy. Ben Casper's dreams are so enormous that he's bankrupted his family, and nearly driven his patient, understanding wife to run for the hills. Ben has totally failed at a series of would-be inventions forever... UNTIL he finally hits on a truly winning invention.

Just a few "small" problems - he has to get his invention to a trade show in Nevada (despite having zero money, zero prototype, and zero people willing to go with him).

Ben pressures his reluctant, anxious employee to come with him on a journey that will nearly end their lives, so they can reach the trade show in Nevada that could change their lives.
