Details

• Release Year: 2014

• Plot: The sci-fi minisereis 'Ascension' offers a truly refreshing premise as it follows a colony of humans halfway into a century-long secret space mission. When a young woman is murdered aboard the U.S. Orion-class spaceship, conflicts arise and the inhabitants question their purpose as the saviours of mankind. Based on the real-life Project Orion that was developed under President John F. Kennedy, 'Ascension' boasts deep-orbit drama in a stylized setting - a self-described 'Mad Men in space.'
