While the world's greatest minds search the skies for cosmic revelations, a dreamer with an unconventional mind finds them in the gutter.

Nasa astronomers have spent decades and billions of dollars looking up in the sky to uncover the origins of the Universe, Jon Larsen, a dreamer who thinks outside the box, had the ingenuity to just look down at his feet. He claims to have found stardust right here on Earth. Ridiculed as a modern-day Don Quixote, his claims have been laughed at by the scientific elite. Until now. Could Jon’s stardust turn out to be real? For Sami filmmaker Elisabeth, who grew up with ancient stories of life beginning in the stars but has spent years searching for answers those myths couldn't provide, Jon's discovery opens a door to solve the mystery of where we come from. Can their unlikely quest bridge the gap between ancient wisdom and modern science?
