Set against a chillingly plausible future, All That Is Solid Melts Into Air is a darkly mischievous, sci-fi family drama that takes the ultimate nightmare of eternal family baggage to a dystopian extreme.
The story revolves around "The Capture" — a tech loophole that lets humans back up their consciousness, conquer death, and even hit a "factory reset" button to become children again whenever adulthood gets too hard.
While everyone else is busy chasing digital immortality, Sarah is the sole sane person holding the line. Deeply traumatised by a childhood school shooting and entirely unamused by her family's obsession with living forever, she spends her life fighting tooth and nail against her overbearing parents just for the simple luxury of being allowed to die.
