Synopsis
In The Sense of Wonder, a spaceship travels through the vastness of space on a journey that has lasted 10,000 years. The passengers aboard have been conditioned to believe that their ship is their entire universe, and they live by strict schedules and roles, with no understanding of what lies beyond the metal walls of their vessel. Ryckwood, an attendant, serves Kreifer, a superior, and their conversations reveal a society devoid of curiosity and wonder, where questioning the status quo is seen as a threat.
