Synopsis
For ten months crew members from African, Asian and European airlines have aligned their duty rosters to be able to rehearse the modern music theatre THIS NEW OCEAN – a show which depicts a journey through time from the mythical Flood to our global reality today. The film shows how their joint collaboration overcomes cultural differences, it assembles their everyday work in the airplane with scenes from the performances at Munich's Cuvilliés Theatre and the Soweto Theatre in Johannesburg, including Monggie´s struggle against apartheid to become South Africa's first black flight attendant.
