Adaptation of Andy Weir’s bestselling novel. A terrifying sandstorm forces the Mars expedition, including Mark Watney, to flee the Red Planet. When the seriously injured Mark regains consciousness, he discovers that he has been left alone on Mars, in a camp devastated by the gale, with minimal supplies of air and food—and, to make matters worse, no communication with Earth.
To make matters worse, both the other members of the expedition and mission control in Houston believe him to be dead, so no one will organize a rescue mission; besides, even if they set out for him almost immediately, they would reach Mars long after he ran out of air, water and food.
Could this be the end? Not at all. Mark begins a heroic fight for survival, in which unyielding determination and the ability to maintain a sense of perspective about himself and the world—which does not always play fair—are just as important as scientific knowledge, technical skills and ingenuity…
