The Longest Goodbye, Ido Mizrahy (Isreal, Canada, 2023)
We delve into a dazzling narrative with The Longest Goodbye, a captivating and original documentary directed by Ido Mizrahy that closely examines the challenges of mental health experienced by astronauts during their missions to Mars. The film provides a meticulous insight into the crucial role played by NASA psychologists, recently integrated into the teams, in preparing these brave explorers for the social isolation they endure in space.
The Longest Goodbye not only explores the technical aspects of space preparation but also sheds light on the significance of mental well-being in environments where historically the emphasis was on physical strength. This revealing testimony serves as a thoughtful analysis of the psychological resilience necessary and demanded to face the harshness of outer space.
Film will be screened in original version with Catalan subtitles.
A film in the 2024 edition of the Brain Film Fest.
