Is Hanus the Giant Spider Real?
But is he real or a figment of Jakubs unraveling mind?
Speaking withGQ, Renck minced no words about Hanus origin.
[H]es one-hundred-percent real, Renck said.
The minute Hanus is not real, the whole film loses its meaning.
Hanus serves as Jakubs counselor and confessor, helping the astronaut recognize his guilt and bad habits.
Again, these developments usually end with Hanus explaining in very simple terms the movies themes.
This is not the way of my kind, but it is the way of humans.
Wait, What About the Chopra Cloud?
On paper, the mystery of the Chopra Cloud drives the plot ofSpaceman.
After staring at the effect with wonder, Jakub tries to grab one in a jar.
It cannot be held, Hanus observes when the particle phases through the jar and Jakubs hand.
As annoying as Hanus captain obvious routine is, it does come in handy for understanding the Chopra Cloud.
Skinny human, this is it, Hanus tells Jakub.
This is the beginning and the end… Every vibration of all time, it is contained here.
While Hanus does get a bit more flowery here,Spacemanisnt quite ready to stop being literal.
Your past and your future, Hanus continues, and we hear young Jakub calling for his father.
As a scientific phenomenon, the Chopra Cloud contains all of reality.
It doesnt matter, becauseSpacemanis more interested in the Cloud as a thematic metaphor.
Do Jakub and Lenka Get Back Together?
Fairly quickly, we realize that these are memories, brought to the fore as Hanus probes Jakubs mind.
She walks through a grassy field and sees a purple Chopra particle float upward.
Plus, Hanus is dead now, so theres no one to explain it all!
Well, for a moment anyway.
The movie ends with him calling Lenka and apologizing, with the two confirming their life together.
Spaceman is streaming on Netflix now.
