The documentary film “Deep Sky” directed by Oscar®-nominated filmmaker Nathaniel Kahn and narrated by Oscar®-nominated actress Michelle Williams will be shown exclusively in over 300 IMAX theaters across North America for a special 1-week limited run, starting April 19, 2024. The film looks at NASA’s latest space telescope, the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) and the scientists and engineers who were involved in its creation and launch. JWST is NASA’s largest science mission ever.
The film is forty minutes long and takes its viewers to the origin of the universe itself. JWST now orbits the sun a million miles from Earth. The film shows pictures from the telescope as it is narrated. Those involved in the film’s production hope they can uniquely express the majesty of the images through the larger-than-life immersive image and sound quality of The IMAX Experience®.
