Io, Jupiter's innermost moon, hosts mining colony Con-Am 27, a high-tech hellhole. There Marshall William T. O'Niel (Sean Connery) probes some mysterious deaths among the miners. In pursuit of the truth, he's alone.
In Outland, writer/director Peter Hyams depicts a chilling extension of today's corporation-driven world. Dehumanisation is vividly evoked in the environments of production designer Phillip Harrison and special effects wizard John Stears, Academy Award winner for his work on Thunderball and Star Wars.
