A galactic love story between the last humans in a post-apocalyptic cosmos.

The near future. A Ukrainian space trucker, Andriy Melnyk, transports nuclear waste on the cargo ship to the abandoned Jupiter’s moon Callisto. During his routine flight, the Earth explodes, but Andriy manages to survive. Andriy becomes the last person in the universe until French woman Catherine calls him from the faraway space station. Andriy decides to see her despite all the obstacles.

Touching the most universal aspects of life – love, loneliness, joy, sadness – “U Are the Universe” is a genre-bending journey into the soul, infinity… and beyond! Written and filmed during Russia’s ongoing invasion of Ukraine, Pavlo Ostrikov’s debut feature is a true wonder and a timely reminder of how important it is to connect with someone who understands us, even during the darkest of times.
