🪐 You are entering a fictional zone: reality has been suspended.
Set in the year 2730 IA, Dr. Evren Kon dares to think beyond a United Council request to build an orbital supercomputer and proposes an idea far bolder: a plan to build an artificial planet. The film takes place during the final century of the project.

🎥 More About “Planet”:
Dr. Evren Kon proposes an ambitious 200-year project to construct a Ganymede-class orbital computer designed to be a habitable planet with its own atmosphere. The story follows the challenges of managing this monumental engineering endeavor and its impact on the architects and the future of humanity.
🎬 Director’s Statement:
Planet is our first swing at bat at making a sci-fi movie. We want to tell stories about the future that aren’t just pessimistic and negative and dark but are inspiring and beautiful and abundant and things that we can all work towards as a collective society.
