Estranged from his wife and son during the pandemic lockdown, Frank accepts a job as a content moderator for the world?s largest social media company. As he evaluates a never-ending stream of questionable content, the work takes an emotional and psychological toll. However, everything changes when Frank sees an opportunity to help a stranger and save himself in the process. Drama Desk Award-winning playwright Ken Urban (A Guide for the Homesick), and two-time Obie Award Winner director Jared Mezzocchi create a haunting, enveloping technological mindscape that explores the essence of human connection.
