A hugely underseen sci-fi movie gem is airing on TV tonight

It holds an 89% Rotten Tomatoes score.

Set in the future, the film centres around a teenage girl named Cee (Sophie Thatcher, The Boogeyman) who travels with her father (Jay Duplass, Industry) to a remote alien moon, to mine for gems in its forests.

The dad and the daughter quickly find themselves in peril, however, when they come across a pair of bandits (one of whom is played by Pascal).

Against all odds, an unlikely alliance winds up being formed.

Earning an 89% Rotten Tomatoes score, Prospect was praised for its incredible visuals - all the more impressive given the film cost less than $4 million to make - as well as its performances, its detailed world-building and its stripped-back Western-like story.

The movie is airing on TV tonight/tomorrow morning on the channel Legend at 12.45 am and is also available to watch on Prime Video.
