Little, Big, and Far
“Critic’s Pick! Achingly beautiful… [a] film about astronomers and humanity and love and the stars… Feels spiritually nourishing in a way few films can manage.” – Alissa Wilkinson, The New York Times
Little, Big, and Far is a fiction/non-fiction hybrid that insists on placing characters, ideas, environments, and political engagement on resolutely equal footing. Astronomy and physics are interwoven throughout, not just as subjects but through textures, sounds, and light, the very fabric of cinema. Austrian astronomer Karl is at a crossroads in his life and work. He finds his physicist wife growing distant and his job being reshaped by environmental crises as thoughts about science, fascism, and his grandson’s future spin above his head. After attending a conference in Greece, Karl decides not to return home and heads for a small island in hopes of finding a dark enough sky to reconnect with the stars. Abandoned at a remote mountain trail, he ascends and waits for darkness to fall.
