American Astronaut (2001)

Part of the Underground Screen Action

Director: Cory McAbee
Certificate: Not Rated
Length:
Format: 35mm
Language: English
Country:

Combines conventions of Sci-Fi, Western and Musical genres without actually being conventional at all.

Apparently the story concerns a rogue space trader who attempts to reconcile the all-male race inhabiting a Saturnian moon with the Amazon culture of Venus, but I've got a feeling that's not going to be terrifically important.

Hang on to your hats and pretend it's midnight.

Warning: contains surrealism.
