What it’s about. La película se centra en dos adolescentes, Arbor y Swifty, y en la relación de explotación que les une a Kitten, el propietario de una chatarrarería local. A Arbor y Swifty los expulsaron de la escuela y, en esos días de incertidumbre, ambos empiezan a recoger (y robar) cobre y chatarra que luego venden a Kitten. En paralelo, la película retrata una costumbre local: las sulkys, es decir, las carreras de pequeños carruajes tirados por caballos que son objeto de apuestas entre los habitantes. Swifty tiene un don para los caballos y Kitten empieza a utilizarlo en las carreras en las que apuesta. A Arbor, cada vez más problemático, le sienta mal esa relación de supuesta complicidad entre su amigo y el que él considera ser su modelo.
