The Flight of the bat is a metaphorical story inspired by the covid 19 pandemic, and the likelihood that the virus came from bats. It addresses the perspective of what can inspire human beings to change in challenging times, and the benign symbolism that can be perceived amidst a catastrophe
Log Line: A man, Mr Skyness, is in the intensive care in the hospital, infected by covid 19. Suddenly a vision of a big bat appears at the window. Confused whether it's an illusion or death itself coming to take him, he's drawn into a flight that changes his current circumstances.
