After twenty years together, Sam and Tusker rent a caravan and go on a trip through rural England. The trip, where they meet beloved friends and visit special places from their joined past, goes smoothly, but the two are deliberately ignoring something. As the trip progresses, it seems they can no longer ignore the reality and the future that looms ahead, and cracks begin to form between the couple.
“Supernova” is a beautiful and touching British drama led by two supreme actors: Colin Firth, winner of Oscar and Golden Globe awards (“The King’s speech”, “Single Man”) and Stanly Tucci, winner of Emmy and Golden Globe awards (“The Devil Wears Parda”, “Hunger Games”). The film had earned glowing reviews thanks to the clever script, the precise cinematic work and the touching acting of both stars.
