The Dish

1h 41m • Comedy, Drama • 2000

“The eternal battle between pragmatism and red tape is once again on the agenda in this agreeable follow-up to The Castle. This time it’s a group of scientists trying to do the right thing by the US space program and by the small town where they’re based. Spirited entertainment.” - Tom Ryan, Sunday Age review

A comedy, “The Dish” tells the true story of a group of Australian scientists manning a remote satellite dish who, much to NASA’s concern, are the only hope for receiving the historic images of Man’s first steps on the Moon. With help from a colorful cast of local characters, the Dish’s crew struggles to overcome a series of mishaps to play a part in one of Mankind’s greatest triumphs.
