On an airplane, David Trask becomes friends with three fellow travellers: a stripper, a mentally unstable doctor, and a boorish salesman. But when the plane crashes, David is the only one of the four to survive. He decides to call and visit the immediate families of each of the deceased, and impart to them information of the loved one they've lost. In the process, David changes their lives -- and his own -- forever. (official distributor synopsis)
