Aniara Plot Synopsis:

A spaceship carrying settlers to Mars is knocked off course, causing the consumption-obsessed passengers to consider their place in the universe.


Synopsis / Plot Summary: Aniara is the story of one of the many spaceships used for transporting Earth"s population to their new home-planet Mars. But just as Aniara leaves the ruined Earth, she collides with an asteroid and is knocked off her course. Aniara"s passengers slowly realize that they"ll never be able to return; they will continue onwards through an empty and cold universe forever. The Swedish Nobel prize winner Harry Martinsson wrote Aniara in 1956. The novel has been translated into a number of different languages, including danish, finnish, english, russian, czech, arabic, japanese and most recently chinese. It has been staged as opera and several theatrical productions, but has never before been filmed. In Aniara"s inexorable journey towards destruction there is a warning that cannot be emphasized enough. There"s only one Earth. We have only one life. So, we have to take responsibility for our actions and constantly guard our environment and our humanity. If we don"t, Earth will soon be a paradise lost.

Tagline: A simple trip to Mars will become the journey of a lifetime
