The Red Stuff plot

"The true story of the Russian race for space."

The director follows a number of retired Russian cosmonauts. All were present at the birth of space travel, but often without knowing exactly what they were getting into. After the launch of the first artificial satellite in 1957 and the dog Laika, it was Yuri Gagarin's turn to enter the cosmos on April 12, 1961. Practically no training preceded this, according to the stories of the ex-spacers. If something went wrong during the landing on Earth, and it sometimes did, it was just covered up.
