THE DOG STARS

From renowned Academy Award nominated director Ridley Scott (Alien, Gladiator), comes the adaptation of Peter Heller’s acclaimed novel, THE DOG STARS, a haunting but also breathtakingly beautiful story of loss, love and survival.

In a post-apocalyptic world where a deadly virus has wiped out most of humanity, former pilot Hig, who survived the pandemic but lost everyone he knew, including his wife, lives in the hangar of a small, abandoned airport with his dog Jasper. Alone, with his only neighbour the gun-toting ex-Marine Bangley, Hig often heads out in his 1956 Cessna, where he can fish and pretend things are how they used to be.

When a random transmission beams through his radio, the voice ignites a hope deep inside Hig that a better life might exist if he flies a bit further. Joining forces with Bangley, he risks it all to chase a possible haven in Grand Junction.
