A group of friends who shared a house in their younger days all communicate via an online video chat room during the COVID-19 shutdown. As lives and ambitions are suddenly put on hold without notice they struggle to come to terms with life in lockdown, dealing with everything from unemployment to a lack of toilet paper. Filmed in mid-June of 2020 and released in early July the show was actually written, filmed and edited under lockdown regulations.

Inspired by true events; a woman escaping a cult, a refugee fleeing with his family, a father trapped in a dead-end job, and a bureaucrat on the verge of a national scandal find their lives intertwined in an immigration detention centre.
