Plot

Every day, a father works to accumulate the money needed to buy go-kart tires for his daughter and himself. At the racetrack or at home, nothing matters but each other's presence. But during their last autumn in the heart of nature and engines, his weakening health prompts him to reflect on the legacy he will leave to her.
