In Gravity, Alfonso Cuarón explored themes of isolation amidst
the inhospitable vacuum of space, using dazzling special effects to elevate a simple story to a visual masterpiece.

of the Southern Ocean might be a cold, dark,
inhospitable place, as devoid
of life as the
vacuum of space it so closely resembles — but that couldn't be further from the truth.
