Breakdown
Synopsis: Three tales of three very different couples, complete with catchy songs and set on board a mystical, timeless locomotive. We’ll meet Larry and Kim, a pair whose happy marriage is threatened once Larry announces his desire to have an affair….but only with Kim’s permission. Then there’s Jake and Karen, a team of political spin doctors who encounter a scandal which may be too hot even for them. And finally we have the highly successful business woman Marie, visited by Terry, who also happens to be the angel of Death. Terry’s plan to take Marie to the Great Hereafter is complicated, however, when he discovers he may have actually boarded the wrong train.
Here we discover life and death, love and heartbreak, ambition and despair as we journey forward, each to our own surprising and inevitable destination.
