2001: A Space Odyssey

In the presence of a mysterious black obelisk, pre-humans discover the use of tools—and weapons—violently taking first steps toward intelligence. On Earth’s moon, astronauts uncover another mysterious black obelisk. Between Earth and Jupiter, the spacecraft’s intelligent computer makes a mistake that kills most of the human crew—then continues to kill to hide its error. Beyond time: The sole survivor of the journey to Jupiter ascends to the next level of humanity.
