Darius Weems, 15, from Athens, Georgia, was born with Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy (DMD). A group of Darius’s college-age friends decide to take Darius, who had never left his hometown, on the adventure of a lifetime. Their three-week, cross-country journey has one major goal: to reach Los Angeles and convince MTV’s popular show, “Pimp My Ride,” to customize Darius’s wheelchair. Along the way, they evaluate wheelchair accessibility at many of America’s major tourist attractions, raise awareness about DMD, and find joy, brotherhood, and the knowledge that life, even when imperfect, is always worth the ride.
