Project Detail

Moths to Flame

Synopsis

20 July 1969. Two men dressed as astronauts chat in a room. They are Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin, in the preparations for an important space mission on the moon. However, a fundamental detail emerges gradually from their dialogue: the mission is not really a trip to the moon.
