Come From Nowhere

In the early hours of July 13, 1977, seven female characters - ranging from a nine-year-old girl and her Greek immigrant mother, to a young chef who is losing her vision, to a brown rat - share the same subway platform. They are unaware that the next 24 hours will see them struggling to find their way home, both literally and metaphorically, when a historic power outage hits the city.

In the tradition of Homer's Odyssey and Joyce's Ulysses, Come From Nowhere explores the concept of home - defining it, creating it, defending it and finding one's way back to it in the face of New York City's most infamous blackout.
