'The Sunshine State' is about Tom, a young man on his way home from a pub in the middle of nowhere. As he stumbles to his car, Wayne, a creepy old man, spawns from the darkness, cheekily asking for a ride back to Queensland after he notices The Sunshine State plates on Tom's car. The two drive into the early morning when they become involved in an accident with a Kangaroo. This accident sparks a chain of events that will change Tom's life forever.
