Synopsis

When everything seems lost, persistence, creativity and a sense of humor can carry you further than you ever imagined. Ridley Scott's "The Martian," adapted from Andy Weir's best-selling novel, stars Matt Damon as astronaut and botanist Mark Watney, who is struck by debris during a violent dust storm on Mars and presumed dead by his crew, who leave the planet without him. But Watney survives, and now he's stranded millions of miles from home with limited supplies and no way to contact Earth. Refusing to give up, he draws on his scientific know-how and unshakable wit to stay alive, even growing potatoes in Martian soil. Back on Earth, NASA director Teddy Sanders (Jeff Daniels) and his team discover Watney is alive and race to bring him home, while his crewmates, led by Commander Melissa Lewis (Jessica Chastain), weigh a daring rescue mission of their own. Along the way, he'll also have to survive his commander's disco collection.
