Filmclub Casablanca shows "U Are the Universe" / "Ти - космос" by Pavlo Ostrikov
Feature film (Ukraine/Belgium 2024 ukr.franz.OmdtukrU) - After the destruction of Earth, space trucker Andriy is the last human in the universe
Andriy Melnyk believes he is the last man in the universe until he receives a radio message from a French astronaut named Catherine, who is also alone on a distant space station. Determined to find her, he sets off on a dangerous journey.
This Ukrainian answer to existentialist science fiction films such as "2001", "Solaris", "Dark Star" and "Moon" touches on timeless themes with a great deal of emotion, but also black humour: Mortality, loneliness, longing and a universal need for human closeness that brightens up even the nihilistic final chord.
