SHOW SYNOPSIS & details

as submitted by the artist(s)

By chance, seven passengers on a train car are buried under a collapsed tunnel. Confined together in close quarters with total strangers, secrets come to light. In light of traumatic events they end up sharing their past experiences with each other. As they share their stories, they realize many of their issues share a common thread. Bonds are made, broken, and rivalries form. Ganging up on each other causes havoc in their tiny space. Will they be able to work together to reach their common goal, or will they let their own needs come first?
