WHAT’S IT ABOUT?

In the near future, humanity has colonized and terraformed Mars, which has seen many people move to the red planet. Back on Earth, college student Sophie (Condor) decides to make the move to be closer to her boyfriend Calvin (Gooding), but gets an extra surprise when her friend Walt (Sprouse), who has always dreamed of going to Mars, has illegally snuck onboard the space shuttle. Forced to spend the intergalactic travel together, Sophie and Calvin soon begin to find a true connection with each other…
