On November 17th 2016, French ESA astronaut Thomas Pesquet took off for his first mission on the International Space Station. For six months, 450 kilometres from Earth where the world seems to fade into the unknown, a dialogue is established between the astronaut and Antoine de Saint-Exupéry’s classic The Little Prince, which he brought with him to the space station. A visually stunning documentary with a lively jazz score by Guillaume Perret, witness a young astronaut’s awe as he realizes his dreams.
