Synopsis
„We have made our peace with the fact that we are not coming back. We are real, true pioneers. The first ever people on another planet. We are now interplanetary.“
In 2024 a private organization plans to send a group of four people to Mars. Paul Leeming and Pauls Irbins are both shortlisted candidates for the planet’s first human settlement.
The mission is going to be a one-way trip. For the fulfilling of their dream they will leave everything they have ever known behind.
The film participated in more than 100 festival screenings worldwide:
