Renowned Russian actors Mironov, Khabenskiy and Ilyin star in this epic adventure that is based on a true story. During the heat of the Cold War, USSR and the USA competed for supremacy in space. Both superpowers aim to be the first to have a man walk in outer space. To accomplish this feat, no price is too high and no risk is too great. Now it’s up to the unlikely duo of a seasoned war veteran and a hot-headed test-pilot to fulfil this mission. Two men in a tiny spaceship, without proper testing, facing the complete unknown…They were supposed to do what no man has done before – and no man imagined what would happen next…
