The movie chronicles the long, futuristic voyage of a team of Québécois space explorers looking for a planet capable of sustaining life, in the year 2034, after the destruction of the ozone layer through excessive human pollution, prompting the need for a new planet to welcome humankind. The seven crew members venture outside their own galaxy to explore other star system in search of a new planet large enough to sustain 6 billion people. The few habitable planets encountered are ultimately abandoned either because they are already occupied (emphasizing the wrongdoing of invading other civilizations and cultures), or because upon closer inspection they are found to have other problems (cow-sized mosquitoes, high radiation levels, dog overpopulation, unsuitable living environment, ...).

No espetáculo que o projetou, Rafinha destila humor e muita polêmica. O ator judeu e gaúcho não poupa as próprias raízes – e nem as alheias. Em cima de um palco, apenas um microfone, um banco, muito sarcasmo e ironia. Rafinha Bastos diz o que pensa, em um show sem frescura, sem censura e sem limite. Ah… e nos extras, um documentário de 30 minutos com o primeiro show do comediante em sua cidade natal: Porto Alegre. Muito legal! Pelo menos foi o que ele e três carpinteiros suecos disseram.
