Gravity (2013) & The Martian (2015): Surviving the Final Frontier

In this episode of Journey Through Sci-Fi, we explore two films that focus on the challenge of surviving in space. First we discuss Gravity (2013), Alfonso Cuarón's intense thriller about an astronaut stranded in orbit after a devastating accident. Then we look at The Martian (2015), Ridley Scott's sci-fi adventure about an astronaut forced to survive alone on Mars using science and ingenuity. Together these films show how science fiction explores the dangers of space travel and the incredible resilience required to survive beyond Earth. Journey Through Sci-Fi explores the history of science-fiction cinema one subgenre at a time. Follow the show for deep dives into sci-fi classics, cult favourites and the ideas that shaped the genre.
