One hint, 6 chances, and a new movie to guess every day
During a mission to Mars, American astronaut Mark Watney is presumed dead and left behind. But Watney is still alive. Against all odds, he must find a way to contact Earth in the hope that scientists can devise a rescue plan to bring him home.
"The maxim of "adapt or die" is taken to the extreme in this movie, based on Andy Weir's novel 'The Martian'. Better known by its namesake title and directed by Ridley Scott, 'The Martian' is a visually spectacular production made in collaboration with NASA, answering the question of whether it is possible to survive on Mars. Above all, it is also a story of human strength in the face of adversity (and a reminder that it is never, under any circumstance, safe to travel with Matt Damon)."
