Final hours

I quite enjoyed this skit. As we listen to the voices of a deep space crew's final hours reflecting on their memories, their lives, and their present ordeal

Evocative


(5 étoiles)

This is an evocative and highly engaging story brilliantly brought to life by a talented cast. As a fan of science fiction, I find that the medium of radio is tailor made for this genre, as there are no limits to the imagination, and for the setting of location/s, scenario and story-telling. This production exemplifies all of that.
