Description

In Earth's future, a global crop blight and second Dust Bowl are slowly rendering the planet uninhabitable. Former NASA pilot and engineer Joseph Cooper (Matthew McConaughey) is tasked with piloting a spacecraft along with a team of researchers to find a new planet for humans to inhabit.

The expedition ventures through a wormhole near Saturn to explore potentially habitable planets orbiting a supermassive black hole called Gargantua. As Cooper and his team face the immense challenges of interstellar travel, relativistic time dilation means that every hour spent on certain planets could equal years passing back on Earth, where Cooper's daughter Murphy (Jessica Chastain) works to solve the gravitational equation that might save humanity.

Interstellar explores the cosmic paradoxes of time and space while also examining the powerful bonds of love that transcend the dimensions of the universe. Christopher Nolan's epic combines hard science fiction concepts with emotional depth, creating a journey that is as intellectually challenging as it is emotionally resonant.
