Cosmodrama

Maybe the 1960s, maybe the future. Seven astronauts wake up in a spaceship, not knowing where they have come from nor where they are heading. As the ship operates by itself, they have ample time to meditate, rather scientifically, on matter, life and the universe. There's sex, a monkey walks around and the psychologist makes another attempt to bring the proof of God into the discussion, but to no avail. Cosmic self-regulation and parallel universes have the last word, the astronomer explains; there are now multiple versions of him walking around. At the last moment, one of them comes up with another explanation that could bring down all that went before. (Moscow International Film Festival)
