As a three-time Academy Award nominee, British director and screenwriter Christopher Nolan has created some of the most successfull films of today. From "The Dark Knight" trilogy to the thriller hit "Inception", his works have been well-received critically and commercially.
Now, after four year's silence, the director stages his comeback with a wild, emotionally-charged flick: Interstellar.
Let's follow Xiong Siqi to learn more.

Christopher Nolan's latest movie, "Interstellar," may well depict an epic, intergalactic journey into space, but the director says it's not just a sci-fi.
"It's always been a science fiction film but at the heart of it was this relationship between a father and a daughter."
Starring Matthew McConaughey, Anne Hathaway and Jessica Chastain, the movie features a team of space travelers who travel through a wormhole in search of a new habitable planet to replace a despoiled Earth. Despite the epic scope and awe-inspiring visual effect of the cosmos, the heart of this very human story is about a father torn between heading off to save mankind or staying behind to be with his children.
Playing the main character, the award-winning actor McConaughey says he treats "Interstellar" as a story of sacrifice.
"The idea that as a man you have the opportunity to go off on a mission that, if it works, could save mankind is an incredibly heady, large idea. I understood that, that was in the story, but I also made sure - at least for my sake - that I had a personal quest in the whole thing, that Cooper, the character I play, had a personal, selfish quest in the whole thing. And I think anything that's done for the good of the most amount of people has to be a selfish act as well."
As for Hathaway, who plays an astronaut in the movie, she is still unsure if she's had an authentic sci-fi experience.
"It's hard to say because I think Chris (Nolan) is so in a class of his own. I don't know if it was a sci-fi film or a Christopher Nolan film because it felt like an intimate - my part felt like such a family drama, so I don't know if I'm necessarily qualified to answer that."
But what exactly is this film all about? The director states that secrecy is of the utmost importance.
"Well I like surprises a lot. If people know too much about it they're just not going to have the experience that we intended, so we just try to play our cards close to our chests."
"Interstellar" opens worldwide in November 2014.
