Everything must go back.
After the last visitor leaves the great museum, the treasures under the glass wake up, a homesick Moai, a wisecracking carved tablet, a pharaoh with a grudge, a marble horse that never learned to whisper, and they have decided, unanimously, that it is time to go home.
Return to Sender is a living story-world built around one very long night and one very confused delivery driver conscripted to ship a continent's worth of history back where it came from, designed to grow across film, series, game, and immersive media.
A comedy about who the past belongs to, one package at a time.

The Cast
Every character is based on a real object, and every real object was taken from somewhere it once belonged. Each card pairs the film's version with the artifact it was drawn from, and the year it left home.
Marble.
Moonlight.
Bubble wrap.
A world that spans a single grand museum and the whole map beyond it, the hushed galleries after dark, the chaos of the loading dock, and every far-flung homeland waiting at the end of a shipping label. Each place is a set piece, and each artifact carries a country's worth of story it is dying to get back to.
