About this event

  • Event lasts 2 hours
  • ALL AGES

Billie and Dino are best friends—on Earth and beyond! Inspired by Billie’s astronaut mother, they spend their time fantasizing about space travel and even build a radio telescope together. When they start receiving strange signals through it, it’s clear to them that aliens are trying to get in touch—but no one seems to believe them… Determined to find the source of the transmissions, the duo heads to the European Space Agency, but their adventure becomes more than they bargained for when they accidentally find themselves launched into space.


“A story told with energy and enthusiasm, WOW! Message from Outer Space is an adventure for (budding) sci-fi fans that balances fun, excitement, and amazement, even in its more unbelievable moments.” — Oliver Kube, FILMSTARTS

WOW! Message from Outer Space was nominated for Best National Feature Film at the International Film Festival SCHLINGEL.

Recommended for children 7 years old and above. In German with English subtitles.
