Seat 68 is a deeply personal story, where Jansone travels with her grandmother to Madeira island. The trip was organised by a tour operator and the majority of the group members were seniors from Latvia. The adventure spirals into a miscommunication explosion culminating on the eve of grandmother's birthday, when all the generational differences come out in the open. Suddenly it is clear that they will not be able to find a mutual understanding on subjects like LGBTQ rights or climate change, the rest of the trip is a partly comical struggle to understand why we are different from each other and how to speak to each other.
