A supernatural drama series created for NBC, Manifest is an investigation of a fictional flight, Montego Air Flight 828, that went missing for five years after a moment of turbulence in the sky. However, the passengers and crew only felt a moment pass despite the rest of the world assuming they were all gone. The “survivors” now try to reacclimate to society as the world has moved on without them - but voices from beyond seem to beckon them somewhere unknown.
