2013 | Canada | Directed by Michel Lemieux & Victor Pilon | Produced by Montreal Space for Life’s | Rio Tinto Alcan Planetarium | English, French
Imagine yourself lying in the grass in the countryside on a beautiful summer night, watching the stars …
This show offers emotional and striking images, with technical and inventive processes, through an immersive experience that catches the visitor and transports him among the beauties of space. We make our way through the galaxy, discovering nebulae across immense space! A journey to blue universes and bubbles joined together, progeny of the Big Bang. These bubbles turn into cells – human forms and space in the image of the other!
