A chance encounter in Los Angeles brings together Paul, a washed-up photographer searching for meaning, and Madeline, a free-spirited Parisian chasing experience. What begins as a fleeting connection turns into an impulsive road trip up the California coast — one that quickly becomes something deeper than either of them expected.

As they travel toward San Francisco, the miles reveal more than just scenic beauty. Vulnerabilities surface, emotions intensify, and the line between escape and connection begins to blur. But Paul is hiding the true reason for their journey — a secret that could unravel everything they’ve built along the way.

JAUNT is a soulful romantic dramedy about chance encounters, emotional honesty, and the unexpected places we find meaning when we least expect it.
