Escaping the Snow Globe is a tale that represents an experience so many black and brown young men know well. Life, in and of itself, can be a rites of passage in which some return anew, victorious from their harsh journeys while many more never return. Escaping the Snow Globe follows Miterenianka (Teren) on one such journey.
Teren has had a tough go. As personal and professional challenges mount, life weighs heavy and Teren is on the brink of giving up. After a week of fresh disappointment, Teren retires to bed one evening to find himself in the next morning transported to a strange, mystical world within a snow globe.
In a race against time and himself, Teren must battle against obstacles in the snow globe reflective of barriers Teren faces in the real world. Teren must overcome dejection, self-doubt, failure, and desperation to escape the snow globe or forever be lost.
