Asteroid City: a fictional American desert town, circa 1955. Junior Stargazers and Space Cadets from across the country assemble for the annual Asteroid Day celebration - but the scholarly competition is spectacularly upended by world-changing events. Equal parts comedy. drama, and romance (with a touch of science-fiction). (Universal Sony Pictures Home Entertainment)
