Space Tourist

An astronaut tour guide originating from the edge of the Universe leads a group of alien space tourists to cities and ancient ruins on Planet Earth. As time passes and the Earth’s temperature warms up, the astronaut becomes increasingly disoriented, forgetting the original purpose of her mission. Through her home planet signals, imploring her to return, she ignores these warnings and begins to believe she is an Earthling herself. Intoxicated by the spectacle of a rapidly changing environment, she begins to wander off alone into unknown lands.
