Set in Brazil, AIRPLANE MODE opens as Ana, an influencer has amassed a large following on social media and works for a fashion brand. Ana has developed an addiction to her phone and is disconnected from those around her. Following some minor car accidents, Ana gets into a serious accident because she was on her phone and ends up in the hospital.
After the accident, Ana is instructed by a court official she can no longer use her phone and must live in a rural area with little internet connection. Ana is sent to live with her grandfather who lives in the mountains and is a car mechanic. When she arrives, Ana gets into a fight with a young girl over her phone, and the brother John intervenes. John and his sisters drop Ana off at her grandfather’s house, where she will meet him for the first time.
At first, Ana finds her grandfather to be cold and distant and figures that’s the reason that her father and grandfather no longer communicate. Ana’s grandfather asks if she will assist him with the cars, and Ana does. To her surprise, she is very helpful and starts to form a bond with her grandfather. Meanwhile, he shows her the room where her grandmother used to sew. Ana starts to follow her real passion, which is designing clothes.
As Ana starts to develop into a better person, she forms strong relationships with her grandfather and John, and even helps mend the relationship between her father and grandfather.
