WE ARE STARDUST

 

For decades, astronomers around the world have spent billions searching the universe for stardust, hoping to unlock the mysteries of life.

Jon Larsen — a jazz musician and true Renaissance man — dared to simply look down. He claims to have found stardust in a gutter, right here on Earth.

Yet his discovery has been dismissed and ridiculed by the scientific establishment.

What if Jon’s stardust turned out to be real?

Film director Elisabeth Rasmussen, searching for her Sámi heritage, finds herself irresistibly drawn to Jon’s unlikely quest and decides to join him.

Can their friendship bridge the gap between ancient wisdom and modern science?
