- Synopsis
- With an all-star cast including Gabriel Macht ("The Spirit", "The Recruit"), Kate Walsh ("Private Practice", "Grey's Anatomy", "Under the Tuscan Sun"), Kim Dickens ("Thank you for Smoking", "Lost", "Friday Night Lights"), and Alison Pill ("Milk", "Dan in Real Life", "Confessions of a Teenage Drama Queen"), One Way To Valhalla tells the story of a selfish, working class gearhead (Gabriel Macht) whose pride and joy (a 1970 Plymouth Barracuda) is impounded, so he is forced to ride a borrowed BMX bike to work. After a bike accident in which he suffers a head injury, however, the mechanic's personality begins to change -- for the better. Soon, none of his former friends or coworkers can relate to him, except his earthy step-daughter (Alison Pill), whose attempts to help him regain his freedom ultimately result in a more grounded and meaningful life.
