Passengers

A spaceship carrying thousands of people to a distant colony suffers a malfunction, prematurely waking up two passengers, Jim Preston and Aurora Lane, 90 years before they reach their destination. Faced with the prospect of living out their lives in isolation, they develop a romantic relationship. However, as their time aboard the ship progresses, they uncover a critical malfunction that threatens the lives of everyone on board, forcing them to work together to save themselves and the remaining passengers.
