Mel follows her boyfriend to the airport – she can’t believe he’s left her. Luckily, her Indian taxi driver (and love guru) is on hand to help bring the lovers back together.

Departure Lounge is an exuberant romantic comedy about giving in to your destiny, no matter how crazy.

With an all-singing, all-dancing musical number, Departure Lounge was shot over seven nights at Townsville airport in North Queensland.

A sleeper hit at the Australian Academy awards (AACTAs), the film maxed the online vote and took the prize for best short comedy.
