Flight 182 is a slice-of-life narrative centered around the heartbreaking true story of the largest act of aviation terrorism in the world before 9/11. The film merges my personal pain with a universal human story about family, the desire to protect loved ones, and the harsh realities of political violence. 2025 will mark the 40th anniversary of this tragedy.
Synopsis: With his mother’s final days slipping away, a devoted husband faces an impossible choice: board the next flight to India to see her one last time or heed warnings from a separatist group openly seeking revenge against the government. Based on actual events.
