A human story, narrated in the first person by its protagonist, Commander Michael LÃpez-AlegrÃa, about the difficulties a father faces in maintaining family ties with his seven year-old son during Expedition 14, a period of seven months and at a distance of 400 kilometers from the Earth. Son and Moonâ approaches the space world from an unusual point of view, combining spectacular images with others, private conversations between father and son via a simple webcam. The figures of space heroes bring them closer to us terrestrial beings by having them share the same difficulties. While we are celebrating 40 years since a man first walked on the moon, this film raises an original idea that struggles between compromise and the survival of the species.
