Drama. 2m, 2w
It is sometime in the future and the world is on the doorstep of an apocalyptic war. All food is strictly rationed as the government is stocking supplies for the future in sheltered cavernous warehouses. Because so much food is needed, many “less-necessary” citizens are not given any rations at all. Red and Thompson have been given unusual, important jobs and unique privileges: they are waiter and waitress in Lee’s Restaurant – an outpost of serenity and a refuge from the chaos outside. Only very special guests of the government are allowed to be served at Lee’s and when they arrive, they are treated very specially indeed. The finest wine and fine food are on the menu for their dinner guest tonight – a mysterious woman who calls herself Rishi – but unfortunately as fine as the evening may be, this will be Rishi’s last meal.
