Description
Ingrid's life on the luxury cruise liner is one of comfort and distraction. She spends her days reorganizing merchandise and waiting for guests to drop dead in the changing rooms, while her nights are filled with local booze and forgetfulness about the past she left behind five years ago. But when Ingrid is selected for the employee mentorship scheme, run by the ship's enigmatic captain Keith, her life takes a drastic turn. As he pushes her further than she thought possible, Ingrid must confront the limits of her own desires and the true cost of her choices. A wickedly funny and slyly poignant satire on modern life, The Odyssey is a merciless takedown of consumer capitalism and our anxious quests for meaning.
