"The sky was torn open and there was a different world behind it"
An American plane crash-lands in a rural valley in a war-torn country.
Will the villagers help the wounded pilot, ransom him, or execute him?
Written in advance of the Iraq War, this staggeringly poetic script by
Scottish playwright David Greig now receives its regional premiere.
