About Gravity

NASA physician Emma Watson finally reaches the International Space Station to conduct biological research, but an experiment involving deep-sea microorganisms turns deadly in microgravity. As crew members become infected and a rescue attempt ends in catastrophe, the station is left crippled and isolated. With the contagion threatening Earth as well as the crew, Emma and her estranged husband Jack race to understand the organism before it is too late.
