Space Between

Montine McLeod (Academy Award-winner Melissa Leo, The Fighter, Frozen River) is a gruff, alcoholic, world-weary flight attendant. Omar Hassan (Anthony Keyvan, ABC s Lost, Disney s iCarly) is a prematurely wise, 10-year-old Pakistani-American boy, traveling alone. The two randomly connect amidst the resulting chaos of that 2001 day, stranded by a forced landing in Houston and unable to return home to New York City. Montine intuitively embarks on an unsanctioned cross-country road trip in an effort to help the young Muslim, now unable to reach his father who works in the Tower s top-floor restaurant ... and in the process, discovers her own path to redemption.
