After Earth explodes, Ukrainian space trucker Andriy Melnyk becomes the last person in the universe until he receives a call from Catherine, a French woman on a distant space station. Despite the obstacles, Andriy decides to find her.

In ‘U Are the Universe’ a space trucker believes he is the last human alive, as he orbits an exploded earth only accompanied by the robotic control system. But suddenly he receives a call from a french astronaut, who might be not only his sole companion in humanity, but also his soul mate. 

It seems as rare as a post earth romance to see a hopeful sci-fi love story delivering the whole world with such simple elements as in Pavlo Ostrikov's film. Truly hopeful, fun, heartbreaking and inspiring.
