big, dumb plane. WHOLE new world.
— WELCOME IN. Here’s the gist: So Far Bound is a scripted, live-action, TV series about a few strangers from around the world whose international flight must land off-course, stranding them in a far off place. We’re raising funds and finding people to make the first episodes of the project. Please browse around for information on the series story and production goals, and, if it interests you, please consider supporting by using any of the campaign links on site. Thank you!
THE STORYLINE — Half the way on a long-haul flight, a faulty plane is forced to land off-course, leaving a few passengers from around the world stuck in a far off place. Over a few days in a small hotel, those passengers connect, and then decide, to stay and start a life and surprising business together during what becomes an historic time in that different land.
