A cosmic, humorous, real-life drama about a cosmonaut stranded in space as the USSR collapses below.
All the more remarkable because it's true, this riveting films starts in May1991, as Sergei Krikalev blasts off into space from the Soviet Union, and boards the USSR's crowning achievement - the MIR Space Station.
But as Krikalev orbits the planet Earth, his country collapses and ceases to exist.He is unable to return as scheduled.When he ultimately does come back to Earth,the Soviet Union is no more, his hometown of Leningrad is now St. Petersburg, and his world has been transformed.
Brilliant and sharply analytical, with extraordinary footage shot in video and in 35mm film in space and on earth below, Out Of The Present is an amazing journey into an uncertain future.
