Deep within a cave, Apoorva, a Gurkha Indian, and a white American Elpis, experience love and a proposal. This leads to their seeking a loan for a house. But, they are rejected. To commiserate, they go to a party of their spelunker friends at the rich alternative rock star Thomas’ house. At this party of Special Spelunkers, we meet the other main supporting characters: Peach, the alternative rock star; Thomas, the wannabe songwriter; Ikenna, Thomas’ strong black lawyer and consummate businessman; and Nosizwe, a single black mother of two geniuses. That night, this ensemble group of spelunker friends hone this pie-in-the –sky idea into the Plato’s Ascension Brief. Waking to a media firestorm, Apoorva, Elpis, Peach, Thomas, and crew weather the storm of the Zeitgeist from this suddenly viral idea. Will society ascend? Yes. But it costs.
