If you loved Radio Free Albemuth, try Approaching the Unknown

A bridge between a film you've already seen and one most people haven't. Here's what they share, and what the second one does that the first one doesn't.

What they share

Theysit in Drama / Science Fiction / Thriller territory. If that's the register that drew you to Radio Free Albemuth, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.

What Approaching the Unknown is

Orbit. Endless night. A ping. Astronaut Stanaforth alone, headed to Mars with a new atmospheric technology. Machines fail. Sanity frays. A locked-room film set in deep space, evoking late Kubrick.
