Christopher Nolan’s Interstellar follows a group of astronauts who travel through a wormhole to find a planet that is habitable for humanity. The movie's main focus comes from its use of theoretical physics, especially time dilation near black holes and the depiction of a fifth dimension. Cooper happens to be the protagonist who communicates across time using gravity, which requires viewers to understand how time and space intertwine. The scene in which Cooper manipulates time to send messages is hard to wrap your head around without a basic grasp of physics.
