MOON in Australian cinemas from October 8!
..

For three long years, Sam Bell (Sam Rockwell) has been on the moon dutifully working solo harvesting Helium 3 for Lunar, a company that claims it holds the key to solving humankind's energy crisis. As Sam's contract comes to an end, the lonely astronaut looks forward to returning to his wife and daughter down on Earth, where he will retire early and attempt to make up for lost time. His work on the moon base has been enlightening, but the isolation is starting to make Sam uneasy. With only two weeks to go before he begins his journey back to Earth, Sam starts feeling strange: he's having inexplicable visions, and hearing impossible sounds. Then, when a routine extraction goes horribly awry, it becomes apparent that Lunar hasn’t been entirely straightforward with Sam.

Catch MOON when it lands in Australian cinema's from October 8!
