Silos by Anita Sullivan. BBC RADIO DRAMA
Episode 1 00:00 Silo 605
'Take a deep sleep vacation in a tube. No work, no stress. Guaranteed sweet dreams.' And a cure for the climate crisis too?
Climate events have set mass human migration in motion. Radical forms of governance and flawed hibernation technology strive to meet the challenges. Nat, a newly qualified lawyer in stasis law, finds she has to deal with some of the fallout.
What did Riv mean when he says the people in the tubes are subliminally awake? Nat travels to Silo 605 to find out, but her client, Marvin, tries to stop her ....
Anita Sullivan's new drama takes us to the island of Lanza, which could be anywhere - and everywhere. This drama is set in the distant future - or maybe not that far off...
