Every summer more than 200.000 tourists visit North Cape, Norway the northernmost point in Europe. A few kilometers before reaching their goal, a 10 - 15 minute stop is theier only chance to encounter Samis, the indegenous people of Northern Europe, and set foot on Lappland and experience the tundra landscape.

'Drive-thru' is using a 'fly on the wall' narrative to create a portray of contemporary tourist industry and travelling in XXI century. The film presents a close look at how an alien landscape and culture is consumed, documented and shared today, no matter if you are in front of the camera or behind it.
