Moon DVD and Blu-Ray Released 16th November
Marking the directorial debut of Duncan Jones, MOON is a gripping sci-fi thriller which stars Sam Rockwell (Confessions Of A Dangerous Mind, Frost/Nixon) and features the voice of two-time Academy Award® winner Kevin Spacey.
Sam Bell (Sam Rockwell) is nearing the end of his contract with the mining company, Lunar Industries, for whom he has been a faithful employee for three long years. His home has been Sarang, a moon base where he has spent his days alone mining Helium 3, the precious gas that holds the key to solving Earth's energy crisis. Isolated and determined, Sam has followed the rules obediently and his time on the moon has been enlightening but uneventful. He does his job mechanically and spends most of his time dreaming of his imminent return to earth, his wife and young daughter. Finally he will have someone to talk to beyond "Gerty" (Kevin Spacey), the base's well-intentioned, but rather uncomplicated computer.
Two weeks shy of his departure from Sarang, Sam starts seeing and hearing things and when a routine extraction goes horribly wrong, he discovers that Lunar Industries has its own plans for replacing him and that the new recruit is eerily familiar. Now Sam has to confront the discovery that the life he has created may not be his own.
Great local connection with the haunting soundtrack being scored by Clint Mansell. For a taster head over to Clint's MySpace page and check out "Welcome to Lunar Industries"
