The premise of Mitch Glass’ short Again™ is almost an anti–Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind.

The theory is that a hibernating crew could stay alive over vast cosmic distances, requiring little food, hydration or living space, potentially slashing the costs of interstellar missions and eradicating the boredom of space travel.
