What if today a small wooden box containing the exact number of years you will live sits outside your door. Would you open it? Would you choose to find out the length of your life?
The Measure charts the dawn of this new world through an unforgettable cast of characters whose decisions and fates interweave with one another: best friends whose dreams are forever entwined, pen pals finding refuge in the unknown, a couple who thought they didn't have to rush, a doctor who cannot save himself, and a politician whose box becomes the powder keg that ultimately changes everything.
Join us as we discuss this dystopian and deeply uplifting story about family, friendship, hope, and destiny.
