Storyline

Me, My Mother and the Moon is a campy, dreamy and colourful story about unique potential, and the responsibility we have to our personal dreams.
After a lifetime of unfulfilled dreams, 42 year old Christopher Green must confront his overbearing, space obsessed, 70 year old mother, with whom he is living, after he decides to quit his cosmic career as an astronaut and follow his own heart.
