Sandra Bullock and George Clooney star in this heart-pounding thriller. It was produced and directed by Alfonso Cuarón and takes place in the depths of space, where mistakes are unforgiving. Bullock plays a brilliant biomedical engineer on her first shuttle flight, while Clooney portrays an experienced astronaut commanding his final mission before retirement. During a spacewalk that initially seems routine, disaster strikes. The shuttle is destroyed, leaving the two stranded—connected only by a link and drifting into the darkness. The oppressive silence reveals that they have lost contact with Earth and have no chance of rescue. Fear turns into panic, and each breath costs them the last remnants of oxygen. However, it may be that the only way home leads even further into the terrifying expanse of space.
