De: David Dyer

Narrado por: Tony Alvarez

'Is this all?'
That's the question Joan asks as she surveys her neat, suburban home and her perfect children. It's July 1969, and her husband, Buzz, is walking on the Moon. In Houston, Joan folds laundry and smiles for the cameras.
Outside, the world is on fire: Vietnam, civil rights, assassinations and women demanding more. But Joan is safe inside her shiny kitchen and NASA tells her she must be Proud, Thrilled and Happy.
Then something goes wrong. Buzz and Neil become stranded on the Moon in their spacecraft. Its single engine has failed. NASA scrambles to find a solution and the world holds its breath. Joan waits patiently.
But she's waited long enough.
In this audacious reimagining of one of the 20th century's most iconic events, it's the men who are trapped and the women who find the courage to reach for something more.
As the world watches the sky, a quiet revolution begins at home.
