Synopsis
Meet Zoe. She is a calm girl with nothing extraordinary happening in her life. She works for a serious IT company, goes to bed early, and listens not to music, but podcasts about science. One day a girl was having a scan when suddenly there is an earthquake. Something strange happens and Zoe starts to hear other people’s thoughts. Surprisingly, they are not in the form of words but the form of popular songs. Suddenly all her friends and neighbors start singing. Zoe is perplexed and asks for help from a noisy neighbor Mo, who is an expert in music. There is no cure for this superpower, and Zoe has to somehow adapt. And start singing too…
