2001 - A Space Odyssey er Stanley Kubricks imponerende, Oscar®-vindende* mesterværk, der på ypperlig vis skildrer kampen mellem mennesket og maskinerne, og som dristigt og medrivende lader musik og bevægelse gå op i en højere enhed. Kubrick (som skrev filmmanuskriptet sammen med Arthur C. Clarke) tager os først med til en præhistorisk fortid, hvor jorden er befolket af aber, for derefter at springe flere årtusinder frem i tiden (ved hjælp af et af filmhistoriens mest utrolige klip) til rumtiden for til sidst at sende astronauten Bowman (Keir Dullea) ud i rummets uendelige vidder – måske helt ud i udødeligheden. "Open the pod bay doors, HAL" - og lad en utrolig rejse tage sin begyndelse.
