Visionary sci-fi author Arthur C. Clarke, queer and closeted, yearns to live without judgment in the future societies he writes about. His personal life in crisis, Clarke is summoned to meet an acclaimed film director who aspires to make the first “really good” science fiction movie. This perfection-obsessed auteur will push Clarke to the brink of his ability - and his sanity - as their turbulent partnership produces the celebrated epic of the Space Age, Stanley Kubrick’s 2001: A SPACE ODYSSEY.
