Pitch
Far future.
Humanity 🌍 has conquered distant galaxies and scattered across the universe 🚀.
Panic in Space follows screen-to-screen exchanges 👨💻👩💻 between planets, ships and space stations separated by thousands of light-years.
Sadly, distance doesn't help: between interplanetary racism 👽, technology out of control 💾 and a certain existential nostalgia 🥺, it's not easy every day.
But the revolution is brewing...
