Synopsis
J Loop
Nicolas is a 14 y.o. kid who wants to learn boxing from coach Jonathan (J). They develop a friendship and Nicolas schedules a dinner with his single mom Veronica (V) and J. However, the two adults were stuck in a time loop 15 years before.
The Astronaut Farmer
Texan Charles Farmer left the Air Force as a young man to save the family ranch when his dad died. Like most American ranchers, he owes his bank. Unlike most, he's an astrophysicist with a rocket in his barn - one he's built and wants to take into space. It's his dream. The FBI puts him under surveillance when he tries to buy rocket fuel, and the FAA stalls him when he files a flight plan – but Charles is undeterred.
