One Man, One Mission, One Choice.

DramaScience Fiction

Guy is an experienced British fighter pilot who is in command of Britain's first manned mission to space. He has trained for this for three years at the height of the Cold War and now he is alone in space with a malfunctioning capsule. He has limited contact with the UK, some unusual communication with the US and some unorthodox communication with Roscosmos deep in Soviet Russia. Who will help him? Will he make the right choice?

VIBE

A chilling, isolated journey through the void. This film feels like a tight, claustrophobic knot of Cold War paranoia and existential dread, where every decision weighs heavy against the vast, indifferent silence of space.
