Baikonur, Earth (2019)
Directed by Andrea Sorini
“Far from the rest of the world. Just one step away from the universe.”
Documentary · 1h 14m
Over the centuries only few caravans dared to cross the northern route of the silk road that today lies in the territory of Kazakhstan. In this portion of Asian desert there was no place to build a majestic city nor anything else worth fighting for. Until in 1955 the Soviet government realised that those lands, far as they may be from the rest of the World, were just one step away from the Universe.
