UCLA college student Jonathan Moore (Anthony Edwards) is playing a game called "Gotcha" (popular on mid-1980s college campuses as "Assassin" or "Tag"), wherein the players are all assigned a mock "hit" on another player by use of a harmless paintball gun. Moore and his apartment roommate Manolo go on a vacation to Paris, France. After touring some of Paris, in a cafe Moore meets Sasha Banicek (Linda Fiorentino), a Czechoslovakian girl. Eventually, Jonathan has intercourse with Sasha, losing his virginity.
Jonathan decides to leave Manolo (who is heading to Spain) and go with Sasha to West Berlin to spend more time with her. Jonathan believes that he is in love with Sasha. There, Jonathan and Sasha continue to have sex and even go to an Oktoberfest beer gathering. One night, Sasha tells Jonathan that she has to go to East Berlin to pick up a package. One night after arriving in East Berlin, Sasha leaves their hotel room and walks to dark street corner. There, Sasha meets a German man who tells her the location of the pickup of her package. Meanwhile, Sasha was being monitored by a Soviet agent, who was sitting in a car at a distance. During the day, Sasha tells Jonathan that if she gives him a certain message, it means that he has to leave East Berlin immediately. At a cafe, Sasha gives Jonathan a package and says that a strudel is inside. A little later, Sasha tells Jonathan to meet her at the butcher shop near their hotel. All of a sudden, a Soviet agent begins to chase after Sasha. Sasha decides to use Jonathan (who is holding her package) to unknowingly get the package over to West Berlin. Meanwhile, Sasha is taken by the Soviet agent and East German secret police.
Jonathan goes to Checkpoint Charlie to cross the heavily fortified border into West Berlin. At the East German customs search, Jonathan is stripped of his clothes and given a cavity search. Meanwhile, Sasha is stripped and searched for possible espionage evidence. Vlad arrives at the border crossing to search for Jonathan, however Jonathan passes the border safely before he can be captured. Once in West Berlin, Jonathan feels liberated by the Westernized society. In the hotel, Jonathan receives a message from Sasha to meet him at a specified location. Jonathan finds out that his hotel room was broken into and robbed of his traveler's checks. Soviet agents eventually find Jonathan in West Berlin and chase him throughout a public park. Jonathan jumps into a water canal and manages to escape from the Soviets and stumbles upon a German rock group headed for Hamburg, who offer him a ride to the airport.
The rock group successfully get Jonathan to the airport (using full-face makeup to sneak him past a checkpoint) and Jonathan finally arrives in Los Angeles Tom Bradley International Airport and to his apartment. Soon, Vlad and a band of Soviet agents arrive too in Los Angeles. Once home, Jonathan stumbles upon a film canister, which was planted by Sasha. Jonathan visits his parents and tells them what happened in Germany but they cannot believe a word of it and think Jonathan is on drugs. Jonathan decides to call the FBI then the Central Intelligence Agency for help. Jonathan returns to find his apartment broken into and looted.
The CIA officer tells Jonathan to give them the photo film canister. At the Los Angeles headquarters of the CIA, Jonathan spots Sasha who looks like she was working there. Jonathan eventually meets up with Sasha. Sasha admits that she is Cheryl Brewster, a CIA agent, originally from Pittsburgh. Out of nowhere, Vlad and his gang begin to chase Jonathan and Cheryl on the UCLA campus. Jonathan eliminates all the Soviets with a tranquilizer gun which he gets from the campus veterinary sciences building. The Soviets are arrested, the CIA agents thank Jonathan for his (indirect) help in obtaining the film, and Sasha tells him she wants to continue their relationship.
After they part, Jonathan talks to a pretty student who rebuffs him coldly. As she walks away, he aims the tranquilizer pistol and shoots her in the rear.
为了天空飞翔的小鸟
过去一年发生的事情对美国和美国人所扣的印象分，靠这部片子全都补上来了，让你再也不敢小瞧中西部人民
在这个潦倒的时代，她不得不逃离，即便些许留恋与施舍，也换不来心灵的慰藉，因为这是她为数不多的高贵。科恩嫂这个角色塑造得太棒了，影后有希望。
拍得太好了 不过想加一句 Empire NV其实离现代文明真的很近 开车一小时到Reno 而且每年火人节就在旁边 知道了之后略微影响观影体验 矫情化了“孤独”
善意，勇敢，真诚，认真地对待爱，执着地热爱自由，这是一个充满生命力的世界。不是对抗这个世界，而是生活在里面往前走，走自己的节奏。
我承认我欣赏水平底，打我看电影起就对这种类型的电影接受不能。
太有同感了。生命该是流动的，我却困住了。等待一个可以任由思绪松弛下来的时刻。需要一段时间什么都不做，准确地说还是要干点儿什么，就是思考。
4-4.5，多给麦克多蒙德一星。「Home is just a word, or is it something you carry within you.」开头这句台词可能已经代表了全部。很奇妙地，我想到的是最近美国的辞职潮、三和大神、字节的CQC以及最近几年投资颇多的「零工经济」方向。当然这类问题可能很难得出什么「答案」甚至没有答案，但审视本身，可能也有存在的价值。

无依，可以是无以依靠，也可以是无需依靠，希望大家都能找到适合自己的依靠方式。
最终女主角还是喜欢在路上，享受孤独，但又不是完整的孤独，她会与人交流，还沟通得很好，并不十分内向。整部片子很像小众独立制片的不知名素人演的，怪不得费兰西斯可以三封，完全洗尽铅华的feel，而梅丽尔还在执着在抓马的《洗衣店》《不要抬头》《让他们说》《毕业舞会》里，虽然演的很好，但是缺乏新鲜感。
“谁此时没有房子，就不必建造，谁此时孤独，就永远孤独。”路上的那种孤寂感想起了里尔克这句诗以及亚历山大-佩恩的《内布拉斯加》。
一个女人，晚年之际脱离熟悉的生活轨道，住在车里，四处流浪。尤其对于女人，世俗更觉凄楚。然而她本人并不这么想。镜头跟随着她，经过空旷荒野，走到巨浪悬崖，沿途日出又日落，冬去春来，与偶遇的人相聚离开，她始终不肯停下。
了不起，镜头和人物情绪都特流畅，看得出来赵婷视听语言还是相当老到的，就是匠气有点重，看到后面某些地方还是太矫揉造作，真正想登堂入室还少了点个人风格，当然，这不妨碍无依之地仍然是一部优秀的在路上电影。

这一场旅途是如何开始的？或许是离群索居的独特，也或许是心里放不下的一个人。只是不想停下来，诗意吗，孤独吗，快乐吗，幸福吗？
Home. Is it just a word, or is it something you carry within you? 漂泊不是无家可归，而是带着家上路。期待很高，但看完略有些失望。电影通片“情绪流”，缺少真正有力量的文本支撑；视听方面给我的感觉是中规中矩，钢琴配乐不贴剧情且在很多时候都显得多余（正面例子是断背山的吉他配乐）。相似题材更喜欢另一位女导演Debra Granik的那部《不留痕迹》。
第一次真切从电影中感受到 原来一个普通人的生活真的值得被拍成一部电影啊 我们真的可以做主角诶
只看了一遍，因此可能认识比较浅。像《撞车》《三块广告牌》喜欢把人塑造成“一半天使一半魔鬼”，这部影片则与之不同，里面的人没有什么“大的”善和恶，更多地是一些“竭尽全力，过着最平凡的生活”的人。作品明显有着人文地理学的关怀，比如把房车视为（流动的）家，再破也不肯卖掉，对工作的工厂的眷恋，为此在沙漠中不肯离去，工厂倒闭后还要重返故地等。对感情的把握似乎不够细微，经常出现温情的音乐，莫名其妙。女主角更像是一个everyman，被贴了各种东西在身上，我对她的个性一直不能拥有一个清晰的认识。
“这种生活最吸引我的一点，就是不会有诀别。”
