Plot-wise I'd say it works as a stand-alone if you're familiar with Star Trek, but I think watching the first five of the season would give you some good build-up. Have you seen the series at all?
I always thought the name Serenity had a vaguely funereal sound to it.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

No, I somehow didn't realize it was a series and not - I don't even know what I thought it was, a novel or comic or something? - until pretty recently and haven't seen any. Catching up on two seasons is a long term project, but 5 episodes I can probably manage fairly quickly
