À quelques jours d'un combat décisif pour sa carrière, Mauser, jeune boxeur prodige de 17 ans, perd pied. Tout commence avec Jackie, au bord d’une piscine, en pleine nuit. La jeune fille, aussi belle que vive d’esprit, y organise une soirée illégale à laquelle est conviée une foule d’étudiants. Lorsqu’une descente de police met fin aux festivités, Mauser s’enfuit avec elle. Il pense l’avoir conquise, mais leur histoire ne dure pas. Son chagrin d’amour est vite éclipsé par un événement autrement plus dramatique : son père étrangle sa nouvelle compagne et s’enfuit au Pow Wow, un étrange festival où il espère parvenir à se cacher. Seul et démuni, le jeune homme se tourne vers Edda, une jeune fille qui lui semble différente des autres. Tous deux décident de partir en voiture à la recherche du père de Mauser.
