Black to the Future

Under tight security, the first African space mission prepares to launch toward the planet NARDAL, imagined as a possible refuge for Africans if Earth becomes uninhabitable. The crew gathers talent from across Africa and its diaspora, mixing aspiration with humor as they brace for a voyage that may outlast any prior voyage. The real test isn't the ship or the stars but the people inside it, who must learn to cooperate across languages, customs, and stubborn habits. Comedy comes from miscommunications, cultural clashes, and small acts of generosity that turn tension into teamwork as the crew moves toward the unknown. A gentle, sly humor underpins the film as the crew negotiates food, sleep cycles, and the ethics of leaving home.
