The Russian Resurrection Film Festival 2017 remains the largest, oldest and most respected Russian film festival outside of Russia. 14 films have been chosen to celebrate one of the world’s most diverse film cultures. Opening night festivities include a live band, food and drinks followed by a screening of Spacewalkers.

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.

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…
