Airport Chaplain TOBIAS WALLACE has an unorthodox approach to solving the daily crises of an airport. Consistently overstepping boundaries to help passengers, incoming Terminal Manager MIRA ANSARI-COLE is determined to fire him. But there is no way Tobias is giving up his beloved chaplaincy without a fight.
Airport Chaplain TOBIAS WALLACE has a constantly ringing mobile, a drawer full of cash, and is convinced the airport couldn’t possibly run without his 24/7 devotion to servicing the needs of passengers and staff. Both aided and obstructed by an eclectic ensemble of airport staff, Tobias pulls out all stops to find lost baggage, transport dead bodies, and give salve to lost souls. But time is ticking on Tobias’ unorthodox ways. His new boss, MIRA ANSARI-COLE, sees Tobias as less ‘saviour to the masses’, and more ‘walking lawsuit waiting to happen’. But Tobias is not changing to satisfy Mira’s KPIs. When Tobias ignores all protocol to return two runaway children home, Mira finally has cause to terminate his contract. But Tobias isn’t going down easily. After all, his job is the only thing keeping his deeply submerged demons at bay.
