Astronaut
Available on Prime Video, Amazon Freevee
Angus is an elderly widower living out his retirement days in a typically dysfunctional modern family. When a billionaire businessman announces, live on television, a once-in-a-lifetime competition to grant three civilians a place on a commercial test flight into space, Angus sees his chance to live out what has been a lifelong dream. Lying about his age, Angus enters the competition, only to win one of the three golden tickets. But will he ultimately make it onto the flight and see his dreams realised or will reality bring him straight back down to earth?
