How far can you see? A mile? A hundred miles? Or to the furthest shores of the universe to a far away galaxy? It's Max's job to ask the cosmic questions. Passionate about astronomy, he works as the narrator at the city's Planetarium where he challenges his audiences with the mysteries of stars and science.

When his own life takes an unexpected turn, Max discovers that understanding the universe requires a different kind of vision...
