Synopsis/Details
In a last-ditch effort to preserve the US, the government launches a spacecraft carrying two astronauts into space. However, their mission turns unexpectedly when their spacecraft collides with a dust particle, sparking a nuclear fusion reaction that sends them hurtling uncontrollably deeper into space. Their situation seems increasingly hopeless as they grapple with their accelerating journey away from Earth. Then, in what appears to be a cosmic anomaly, they are transported into an ethereal realm that could only be described as heaven. In this place of unfathomable peace and beauty, they are confronted with a choice that carries monumental implications: remain in this celestial haven forever or return to the chaos of Earth to protect their children and help rebuild their world. This narrative explores sacrifice, love, and the enduring human spirit. It challenges the protagonists—and the audience—to consider what truly matters when faced with the ultimate decision: the choice between a peaceful eternity and the tumultuous yet precious reality of life on Earth.

The Writer: Manuel Cantu

I’m a retired engineer turned screenwriter, reshaping adversity into art. Living with severe phonological dyslexia once made writing nearly impossible — but thanks to dictation technology and a relentless creative drive, I’ve found my voice. Now, I’m building stories that blend grit, imagination, and global vision. I’m the founder of BulliiBall.com, home to a new cinematic sport that fuses American football with soccer, and Can2Studios.com, my production banner. My debut feature, The Bulliiball Showdown – Rise to Glory, has already reached the Top 6% of all scripts on Coverfly, with several other projects currently in festival contention. Go to bio
