DREAM KISS CRY

Are we all connected through life's little and meaningless occurrences? Are they really so meaningless? An array of characters from different communities around Sydney are unknowingly connected through an overseas visitor. Does one person decide their destiny or are they in control of their own destinies? The question being, do we determine our own fate or is it determined by the actions of complete strangers? How much control do we actually have over our lives?
