Interstellar
The film Interstellar (2014) by Christopher Nolan illustrates the outer space full of
ghosts, black holes, tesseracts, and gravitational phenomena. The protagonist takes an adventure
into space in an attempt to find a new habitable planet where he comes across unbelievable moral
dilemmas, religious questions, and scientific challenges. Although the film incorporates
scientific fictional tropes, it contains magical elements that make it fall into the fantasy genre.
The producer adopted the time dilation from Einstein's theory of relativity to create interesting
moral questions concerning the characters. The film attempts to bring out scientific realism but
the magical elements create a fantasy because the supernatural events are likely to occur in real
life.
The film also focuses on advanced technology in a fantasy world where the audience
feels frightened and gets their mind bent in an unparalleled experience. The sci-fi sub-genre
brings a gaze in the film where the audience gets a peripheral entry into deep contemplation and
philosophical inquiry. The film has almost no couples and therefore romance is not a key
element in the film. Instead, the movie has expressed different forms of love, spreading from
generation to generation and across space and time. The film does not focus on romantic love or
at least sex but a love of a parent towards his children is apparent in the film (family love). The
characters in the film seem to experience cross-cutting connections that form a deep communion
with people who are considered dead. The film leaves the audience with radical thoughts that
make the experiences in the film a cultural event. Although the film does not explain events, it
gives a deep foundation for meaning and brings significance into the plot’s understanding.
