"Before Mars" complements the highly anticipated National Geographic global event series "Mars" from Academy Award and Emmy winning producers Ron Howard, Brian Grazer and Michael Rosenberg.
“Before Mars” is a heartwarming narrative that explores the themes of self discovery, belonging and family. For those of us who have a wanderer’s soul, our idea of “home” is one that can constantly change. But there is one thing that remains the same, at the end of the day, no matter where our adventures lead us, we can always find our home with the ones we love.
