A heartfelt and emotionally grueling portrayal of the bond between a mother and daughter tested by extreme ambition. We see the toll it takes on both of them as Sarah trains for PROXIMA to become an astronaut. The movie showcases the lovely Eva Green's range as an actress with an incredible, subtle performance! Great directing by Alice Winocour.
