Night flight from Paris to Singapore. Five destinies meet through the eye of Caroline Tiné who invites us to a poetic timeless lockup.
I stopped being a hostess just a year ago in order to start writing. I work as a freelancer for a travel magazine, which allows me to continue to travel around the world. But I’m also writing to free myself from worries. Only by plane. The night in the sky... I stopped being a hostess just a year ago in order to start writing. I work as a freelancer for a travel magazine, which allows me to continue to travel around the world. But I’m also writing to free myself from worries. Only by plane. The night in the sky whispers to me the words erased in childhood. Writing repairs me. And the smell of felt armchairs imbued with intimacy and unknown lives brings me closer to a humanity whose secrets I try to understand.

Talitha is a passenger on an night flight from Paris to Singapore. Here she gets into her bubble. Near her, there is Leïla: a very special teenager who travels alone. A few rows further, Marie-Ange cuddles her tiny dog, the passion of her life. She goes far away from her roots and she mourns unhappy love. In the cockpit, the co-pilot, Saul, a former colleague of Talitha’s, is an injured man who has to face his demons. Then there is Anil Shankar, an ageless man, who recently left the ashram where he was isolated and knows he is ready for the last trip.
