Aningaaq
During a pivotal scene in Gravity, Ryan Stone (Sandra Bullock), trapped inside a Russian space capsule with little hope of survival, makes contact with a male voice speaking via radio in a foreign language. What unfolds on the other end of that fractured conversation, complete with a barking dog and a crying baby, is the subject of a short film.
