Star is fed up with her current way of life; she's a teenager with her whole life ahead of her and no prospects coming her way in her current hometown. Setting out on the road, Star begins to have ideas about hitchhiking away from her troubled life and is approached by Jake, a carefree guy who travels state to state selling magazine subscriptions.
Jake isn't alone, he journeys with a team of fellow youth whom are part of a 'mag crew', who like Star, are running away from home for one reason or another. Jake tells Star about the crew and what they do; he tells her how the crew go door to door selling magazines whilst also exploring America and partying at night. This 'a business opportunity' is too good for Star to resist.
Speaking with Krystal, the only proviso for joining the crew seems to be that if she has no one to miss her, she's good to join. Life on the road begins as Jake explained, the small gang sells hard during the day and drink and party just as hard at night.
As Star becomes to the crew she forms a special relationship with Jake but as Star's behavior becomes more erratic, all the crew find themselves pushing their limits.
American Honey is a warped teenage love story filled with grit and the all too dangerous realities of running wild whilst travelling on the road.
American Honey features an intrinsic soundtrack that includes tracks from Raury, Lapsley, Carnage, Mazzy Star, Bonnie 'Prince' Billy, Sam Hunt, E-40 and Jeremih to name but a few.
