Space is the place to be if the world ends. The problems of the Earth don't exist in space. There are a lot of other problems. Maybe there are some solutions too. That is the set up for a new sci-fi film called Rubikon, which is coming to theaters and on-demand on July 1.
A team of astronauts living on a space station are living in fear of the world ending due to an environmental event. The astronauts realize they might have something on board that can save them. Do they risk their lives for it? io9 is excited to debut the trailer for Rubikon.
It looks like a solid space film. You have a crisis that needs to be solved, a moral dilemma, characters losing their minds, and lots of conflict, all of which are happening in zero gravity. We will have to wait and see. The trailer is solid.
This is the official description of Rubikon, which is out everywhere July 1.
G/O Media may get a commission2056. A toxic cloud of pollution has swallowed the earth, killing untold numbers. The world’s nations have dissolved, with all power now in the hands of giant corporations. The rich retreat to sealed biodomes while the poor choke and starve. On the space station Rubikon, Hannah (Julia Franz Richter), Gavin (George Blagden), and Dimitri(Mark Ivanir) weigh the fate of the planet’s survivors. Should these crewmembers risk their own lives on a rescue mission to the surface, or ignore the old world to build a new one of safety and solitude, living off the station’s sophisticated algae symbiosis system? Against the vast canvas of the cosmos, three people with different worldviews debate their moral responsibility to the species, all while grappling with the timely agony of isolation.
