MAIN CHARACTERS:

• MOLLY (Adult, Female): A desperate mother, her nervous determination and fierce protectiveness drive her to take risks for her children’s safety.

• CHARLIE (Adult, Female): A tough, pragmatic pilot, her wariness and sharp instincts make her cautious, but a spark of empathy sways her to action.

SYNOPSIS: In the cavernous echo of an airplane hangar, Molly, a woman taut with resolve and fear, seeks out Charlie, a no-nonsense pilot engrossed in her plane. Molly’s plea to transport precious “cargo”—revealed to be her two small children—sparks tension, as Charlie bristles at the risk of human smuggling. But when Molly drops the name of a dangerous figure, her father, and hints at a web of betrayal and corruption, Charlie’s reluctance wavers. With a nod toward her plane, she agrees to help, setting the stage for a high-stakes escape that promises to unravel a nest of secrets.
