In Moon, Rockwell’s Sam Bell is the sole human responsible for maintaining operations on Sarang Station, the lunar facility built to mine helium-3, which displaced fuel after Earth underwent an oil crisis. Sam’s only companion is a robot named GERTY (Kevin Spacey), as live communications with Earth have been disabled in favor of recorded messages from his wife, Tess (Dominique McElligott). Battling chronic loneliness throughout his mandated three-year mission, Sam counts down the days until he can return home to Tess, who was pregnant when he left.
