Have you ever looked up in the sky and felt like the stars are going to fall on your head? Or perhaps you've tried Google Earth VR like I did and panicked at the sight of the Sun.

And if there is one film that captures that horror the best, it's Stanley Kubrick's 2001: A Space Odyssey. HIGH LIFE is now streaming on MUBI in Canada, UK, Ireland, Turkey and the Netherlands.
