Ad Astra (2020)

Prepare for a visionary odyssey that processes the vastness of space as a mirror of inner emptiness. In the near future, astronaut Roy McBride must listen to the silence of the stars to stop a phenomenon that threatens life on Earth. The final hook that ties this narrative together is his mission to locate his father, lost decades ago in the outer reaches of the solar system.

With its immersive execution , the film uses science fiction to force you to grapple with what remains of humanity when we stray from our biological origins. Directed by James Gray, the plot plunges you into a reality where technology cannot fill the void left by a father's absence. It's a piece that demonstrates that the longest journey isn't to Neptune, but rather toward accepting our own nature.
