Saturn is a character-based science Fiction film about a family in a picturesque seaside town whose lives are upended when a strange planet appears in the sky on a collision course for Earth. The planet's appearance brings back a life that James thought he had left years ago when he settled down with his wife and young son. But, with the outside world in chaos and his perfect family slowly falling apart, James must decide between running from his destiny or sacrificing everything he loves. We slowly learn that James is more than meets the eye. He has a secret he’s never shared with anyone... a secret that is humanity's only hope. Taking inspiration from classic and modern sci-fi, Saturn asks a simple question: how far would you go to save those you love?
