A meditative documentary that weaves an astronaut's six-month orbital perspective with Saint-Exupéry's philosophical vision, creating a contemplative dialogue between human isolation and cosmic wonder.

450 kilometers from the Earth, during these six months when the world seems to be moving into the unknown, a dialogue is woven between the astronaut and the visionary work of Saint Exupéry that he took to the space station
