Map Of The Universe
Based on a true story Professor Jim Yancey, a world-leading astronomer at Berkeley University in San Francisco, is poised to make scientific history in his quest to find the first outer solar planet. But his findings are disputed by a prodigiously talented, eccentric English star spotter, 18 year old Archie. A film about a man and boy whose love for the stars is sometimes greater than for those people around them.
