The year is 1998, and alien tech is a natural, albeit politically debated part of life. When Anka's estranged friend turns up on his doorstep and presents him with the possibility to redeem himself for his past hubris, he has a choice to make. Does he continue to keep his head down as was "advised" by the authorities, or is it time to risk what little he's got left to join Lucia and bring their friend back? *** Dead Scholars' Whispers is a sci-fi drama adventure with a mostly queer cast.
