Synopsis

What would happen if a spaceship orbiting the Earth could not return to its base because the conditions on our planet had become unliveable? For the astronauts, the only way out would be to find another place to settle.

Our take

Herzog’s unclassifiable, found-footage “science fiction fantasy” uses NASA materials and underwater photography to examine life on an unliveable planet. Featuring the inspired casting of cult star Brad Dourif, this fascinating space oddity brilliantly gets at the heart of our relationship to Earth.
