CINEMA SOMNIUM presents the trailer of a new sci-fi movie coming soon to theaters. The film is inspired by Johannes Kepler's science fiction novel Somnium (The Dream) and is starring the three SOMNIUM K satellites launched from various locations in Regensburg into the orbits of Haumea, Kepler 16b and its hypothetical exomoon. Their mission is to collect never-before-seen footage for the new movie.

The works CINEMA SOMNIUM and SATELLITE SOMNIUM explore the fascination of the unknown outerspace and the appetite for never-before seen images - a constant in our human society from early times to present. From myths and magic, to stories, films and science our world constantly produces dreams of another reality.
