Synopsis
In a very different 2016, a plane is travelling between Dublin and Cologne. A plane with a fully automated android captain and cabin crew who are here to serve your every want and need. April Moore is travelling alone for the first time. In the throws of the most confusing and distressing time in her life, she strikes up an unlikely friendship with an emotionless android. A witty and touching short play about the importance of understanding and empathy in our most desperate hours.
