Trailer Highlights: A Journey into the Unknown
The trailer opens with the iconic song Major Tom (Coming Home) by Peter Schilling. Viewers are introduced to a character named Wim, who becomes embroiled in trouble after discovering something he wasn’t meant to find in the woods. After escaping, he leads his friends to explore his find, setting the stage for a tumultuous escape from their home planet.
As the plot unfolds, the kids inadvertently become embroiled in a larger conflict within the galaxy. In a marketplace, they are pursued due to possessing Old Republic credits, culminating in a fateful encounter with Jod Na Nawood. Jod offers assistance in their quest to return home—though his motives remain shrouded in mystery.
The trailer showcases exhilarating action sequences and adventure montages, hinting that the central narrative will revolve around the kids’ attempts to navigate space and return home, all while forming a bond with the enigmatic Jod.
