Two ships collide in a harbour, an explosion shatters a city and a sailor is blasted skyward. With ears ringing, blood pulsing and guts heaving, he soars high above the mayhem and towards the great unknown.

Academy Award®-winning, Alberta-based, filmmakers Wendy Tilby and Amanda Forbis have crafted a bold blend of comedy, suspense and philosophy that is an exhilarating contemplation of the wonder and fragility of existence.
