I Built a Rocket Imagining Your Arrival

2026 · 92 min Drama Science Fiction
8.0 / 10 · TMDB

Luis stares at the stars through a homemade telescope assembled from bicycle parts and kitchen utensils. His father, an astrophysicist, vanished in space decades ago, and now the boy is building a rocket, convinced he can find him. In a derelict hangar on the city's edge, a fantastical project bordering on madness takes shape. Neighbors dismiss Luis as an eccentric, but his physics teacher sees genius in the simplicity of his schematics. When an unexpected ally joins the construction—an artificial intelligence from decommissioned lab equipment—the dream begins to assume dangerous contours. This 2026 drama explores the boundary between genius and obsession, where science fiction becomes a personal rescue mission.

🎬 MovieFinder's Take

The director employs a minimalist palette—muted blues and steel grays of the hangar contrast with the warm glow of old monitor screens. The camera is often static, observing the meticulous work of hands, creating a sense of documentary observation.

Those who appreciate slow-burn character studies will find a poignant narrative about isolation and determination. What lingers is the haunting question of how far hope can propel someone. — MovieFinder Editorial
