When Seb and his best friend Clay are caught up in a shooting while on a school trip, Clay is seriously injured. Seb is determined to make it to the rainbow pool in Yellowstone park that Clay talked about in order to make a wish to help him heal.
In the same incident Vivi’s grandmother is killed. She meets Seb when she and her father go to America for the memorial event to remember those injured.
Before we know it, the two families are heading on a road trip together as they find ways to come to terms with what happened. Seb and Vivi sneak out at night to find the Rainbow Pool, and end up having the most unbelievable - if terrifying - experience.
