Catherine Carr hosts a series of spontaneous encounters centered around the singular question, "Where are you going?" By approaching strangers in diverse global locations without prior research or preparation, the conversations transition from mundane logistics to profound personal narratives. These brief journeys reveal a spectrum of human experiences, ranging from the whimsical—such as a photo shoot for an "alien princess" or a dog wearing a snood—to the deeply poignant, including a man’s struggle with agoraphobia following his wife's death and a first-time experience with snow. The dialogue captures the unexpected depth of the human condition, illustrating how a simple inquiry into someone's destination can uncover stories of grief, joy, and resilience. Ultimately, these interactions highlight the surprising connections found in everyday transit and the rich internal lives of perfect strangers.
