- Synopsis
- The quintessential science-fiction film in the history of cinema narrates the various periods in the history of mankind, not only in the past, but also in the future. Millions of years ago, before the appearance of "homo sapiens", some primates discover a monolith that leads them to a higher intelligence stage. Millions of years later, another monolith, buried on a moon, arouses the interest of scientists. Finally, during a NASA mission, HAL 9000, a machine equipped with artificial intelligence, is in charge of controlling all the systems of a manned spacecraft. (FILMAFFINITY)
