Moon (2009) is a thought-provoking science fiction film directed by Duncan Jones. The story unfolds on a lunar base where Sam Bell, played by Sam Rockwell, is nearing the end of his three-year solitary contract mining Helium-3, a precious resource that has been key to Earth's energy crisis. Isolated and with only the base's computer, GERTY, as his companion, Sam's health and mental state deteriorate as he longs to return home to his wife and daughter. As his contract approaches its end, a startling accident on the lunar surface leads to an encounter that challenges everything he knows about his work, himself, and his existence. Packed with suspense and existential intrigue, "Moon" explores themes of identity, loneliness, and the human condition, making it a unique entry in the sci-fi genre.

Presented in conjunction with Massachusetts Space Week.
