The story unfolds aboard a commercial aircraft. A sudden technical malfunction over the Gulf of Mexico frightens the passengers so much that they begin sharing their stories with each other - and these stories are quite strange and bizarre.

About the venue: Zámek Veleslavín

A baroque château in the Prague district of Veleslavín, built in all likelihood to plans by Kilián Ignác Dientzenhofer between 1730 and 1750. Around the turn of the 20th century it gained neo-baroque wings and became a lung sanatorium - patients included Charlotta Masaryková and Milena Jesenská, while T. G. Masaryk set up an office here after returning from exile. From the 1950s until 2018 the complex served various medical facilities. In 2024 the Prague 6 municipality opened the grounds to the public as a park and venue for cultural events.
