Nate Taylor hasn't spoken a word to his brother, Ged, in over four years, ever since the fateful night when he was discovered in bed with his older sibling's fiance. But when their mother passes away from a sudden aneurysm, the brothers must set aside their differences in order to fulfill their mother's dying wish: to have her ashes scattered at the old family home in the country town of Narrabri. Setting out across Australia in the only vehicle available to them - a black hearse - the boys soon realize that the trip will be anything but plain sailing. Spurred on by Ged's destructive behavior and their intense dislike for each other, a set of unfortunate events threaten to derail them from ever reaching their goal. But as they drift ever further away from reconciliation, Nate comes to understand that the only way they'll ever fulfill their mother's final wish will be to face the ghosts of the past head on, no matter how painful it may be.
