CHRISTMAS ON MARS
US 2008
Director: WAYNE COYNE, BRAD BEESLEY, GEORGE SALISBURY
Wed Jan 14 9:00 PM

Seven years in the making, this wild science fiction extravaganza features original music by psychedelic rock band The Flaming Lips and performances by all the band's members. It's Christmastime, and the colonization of Mars is underway. When an oxygen generator and a gravity control pod malfunction, Major Syrtis (Steven Drozd) and his team (including Michael Ivins) fear the worst. Meanwhile, a compassionate alien superbeing (frontman Wayne Coyne) arrives, inspiring and helping the isolated astronauts. (82 min)
