About 150 years in the future, young Ferdinand “Ford” travels with his sisters aboard the luxury spaceship Eleanor Roosevelt, bound from a female-governed Earth to Venus. With hundreds of women seeking husbands in a society where men have become scarce, the journey offers a comic reversal of mid-century gender expectations. Dennis Bellabio stars as Ford.
