Imagine a world where Pirates of the Caribbean meets Star Wars, and you have the blueprint for this epic tale set on the distant world of Tamani Prime.

When a mysterious box from a dying space pirate falls into her hands, Jackie is thrust into a whirlwind adventure. With the help of Dr. Chesham, an ex-military doctor, Squire Huntingfeld, an eccentric benefactor, and Captain Eldridge, a calculating ship's captain, Jackie navigates the perils of space and confronts Argentum, a man of ruthless cunning.
Our special guests today are none other than the film's co-writer and director, Tom Konkle, and the legendary Australian actor Vernon Wells.
