  The Martian Family Project
  
  The Martian Family Project was inspired by the film Martian Child.  The film is a romantic drama starring John Cusack as a recently widowed science fiction writer who forms an unlikely family with a close friend (Amanda Peet) and a young boy he adopts that claims to be from Mars.
  
  The new couple ignores some sage advice from the widower’s sister (Joan Cusack) and gets more than they bargained for when a series of strange occurrences lead them to believe that the child’s claim may be true.  
  
  Based on an award-winning short story by sci-fi luminary David Gerrold, Martian Child is directed by Menno Meyjes and produced by David Kirschner, Corey Sienega and Ed Elbert.
  
  The film reminds us that family is all about those things that give you a sense of belonging and how that can come from many sources.  What gives you a sense of place?  This project allows you to document those moments in time forever.
