The Martian
2015 · TMDB 7.7
Directed by Ridley Scott
During a manned mission to Mars, Astronaut Mark Watney is presumed dead after a fierce storm and left behind by his crew. But Watney has survived and finds himself stranded and alone on the hostile planet. With only meager supplies, he must draw upon his ingenuity, wit and spirit to subsist and find a way to signal to Earth that he is alive.
Why it matters
Stranded alone on Mars, astronaut Mark Watney survives by sheer ingenuity, communicating with Earth through typed logs and improvised science. His isolation is broken only by the shared problem of getting him home.
