Big dreams start quietly.
Twelve-year-old Nya Monroe doesn't think anyone's paying much attention. She listens more than she talks. She sketches more than she speaks. But everything starts to shift the day she imagines her own future on wheels-and designs it by hand.
With a growing love for cars, design, and her hometown streets, Nya begins sketching the Flowmobile-a car that blends Detroit's history with its future. Quiet afternoons become bursts of ideas. Cardboard models rise from kitchen tables. And a voice that once lived only in pencil lines starts to find the courage to be seen.
As Nya's vision grows, so does the pressure: rejection, self-doubt, and second guesses. Now she must decide: Will she keep building the dream in her head-or put it on the road for the world to see?
