Plot

Five people are recruited by the Viking Society to collaborate on the first manned mission to Mars. They were chosen because of the psychological similarities they share with the five astronauts who will travel to the red planet.

Sinekatalog’s take

A Quebec sci-fi comedy where ordinary people are recruited to act as stand-ins for astronauts on a Mars mission. Deadpan and quirky, with a touching emptiness. A good pick for fans of understated absurdist comedy.Sinekatalog’s own editorial review – not a user or critic quote.
