On an ordinary day, Arthur Dent, a rather average guy, finds out that his house is about to be demolished to make way for a new road. However, his concerns escalate dramatically when he discovers that Earth, his planet, is also on the destruction list, this time by intergalactic beings who want to make room for a cosmic highway. Through a twist of fate, his friend Ford Prefect, a researcher for an intergalactic travel guide, arrives just in time to save him.
Together, they embark on an exhilarating adventure through space. Throughout their journey, they encounter an eclectic cast of characters: the desperate and egocentric president of the galaxy, Zaphod Beeblebrox, his friend Trillian, and Marvin, a pessimistic android. Each stop on their journey reveals a blend of absurd humor and surreal situations as they explore philosophical themes such as life, the universe, and everything in between.
With a visual style that captures the essence of Douglas Adams' legacy, this film is a feast of cosmic madness, wit, and British humor. As Arthur faces the challenges of being a human in a chaotic universe, the story transforms into a journey filled with surprises and lessons that question the true nature of existence and the meaning of life, all while searching for what the right question is for the answer 42.
