It’s the biggest event since sheep invented wool! Apollo 11’s astronauts will walk on the moon — and the 1,000-ton satellite dish in tiny, sheep-farming Parkes, Australia, will beam that historic first step around the globe.

A culture clash of cosmic proportions erupts in this fact-based tale of how the biggest televised event in history was almost not televised. The Dish, with Sam Neill (Jurassic Park), Patrick Warburton (Seinfeld) and others in a skilled ensemble portraying a spirited array of techies and townies, “will send you to the moon and back laughing” (Bruce Kirkland, Toronto Sun).
