About The Signal

Paula is back on earth after months in orbit. Now, just a short flight across the pond will bring her back to her family. But Paula never makes it home. Sven and their daughter Charlie wait at arrivals in vain. Its as if the plane has vanished from the face of the earth.

While Sven tries to shield his daughter from the terrible news, he clutches at every straw of hope he can find. Finally, it seems his faith is rewarded - Paulas left him a riddle, a breadcrumb trail that Sven follows readily. But the further he follows it, the more his life starts to collapse; the riddle seems to become deeper and the threat, for him, Charlie, and the whole planet, gets ever greater. While stationed on the ISS, Paula made an unbelievable discovery in the depths of space.

The suspenseful mystery-drama written by and starring Florian David Fitz is a four-part Netflix limited series.
