Synopsis

Mass hysteria has hit the nation. All the streaming services have suddenly disappeared and the country is panicking. In the midst of the chaos Sylvia, an energetic woman in her eighties, dies in her sleep and passes over to the other side. There, she meets the strict, non-nonsense angel, Purell. Purell encourages Sylvia to come to terms with her passing and helps her see that the mass panic is only temporary, it will end. Sylvia walks towards the light, a shining red ‘N’ Netflix logo, as technology begins to make sounds of springing back to life.
