Synopsis
An old Cosmonaut lives in his flat in a concrete apartment building, leading the same life he led as a young man in a space station. Just like before, he still goes on heroic missions and misses his close relatives, whom he left behind on his home planet. His family sees the situation altogether differently. Is the old man capable of coming to grips with societal norms? A cosmonaut remains a cosmonaut, to the very end.
