2067. An environmental crisis and a devastating crop-killing drought force humanity to look to the stars for a new home. Recruited by NASA for a top-secret mission beyond the stars, Joseph Cooper (Matthew McConaughey) – loving father to Murph (Mackenzie Foy) and the more distant Tom (Timothée Chalamet) – heads up a critical interstellar expedition through a wormhole.
Arriving at the destination of three planets orbiting black hole ‘Gargantua’, Coop discovers that the clock is quickly ticking for the future of the human race – as time dilation means that one hour spent on the new hope planet is 23 years back on Earth.
A staggering achievement in science-fiction cinema, Interstellar is an emotionally resonant, cosmic father-daughter story (with the older Murph played by the remarkable Jessica Chastain), and a stunning showcase of the great Christopher Nolan at his most expansive and contemplative.
