Summary
Diane Ford (Michelle Monaghan, *Gone Baby Gone*), a vivacious and successful independent truck driver, leads a carefree life of long-haul trucking, one night stands and all-night drinking with Runner (Nathan Fillion, *Firefly*,*Castle*) until the evening her estranged 11-year-old son, Peter is unexpectedly dropped at her door. Peter hasn't seen his mother since he was a baby and wants to live with Diane as little as she wants him, but they are stuck with each other - at least for now, while his father Len (Benjamin Bratt, *Law and Order*) is in the hospital. Burdened with this new responsibility and seeing the life of freedom she's fought for now jeopardized, Diane steps reluctantly into her past and looks sidelong at an uncharted future that is not as simple or straightforward as she had once believed possible. Official Selection at the **Tribeca Film Festival**, winner of Best Actress (Michelle Monaghan) at the **Fort Lauderdale International Film Festival** and the **Vail Film Festival**. *"TRUCKER is a wonderful new movie, with a career-changing performance by Michelle Monaghan. 4 stars. Her performance clearly deserves an Oscar nomination." - Roger Ebert*
