    • Synopsis
    • Based on true events, two determined superpowers – the United States and Russia – are deadlocked in an intense race to space during the height of the Cold War. As the world watches, who will be the first man to walk outside of a spacecraft above earth? No price is too high and no risk too great for either side as they battle in a fierce competition to secure the title of supreme world power.
      For Russia, a hot-headed test pilot and seasoned war veteran are paired together to complete the first-ever spacewalk assignment that will beat the Americans. Placed in a tiny, converted spaceship without time for proper testing, the two men are thrust too quickly into a mission where they face unfamiliar obstacles and unimaginable danger. Both must find a way to work together and survive against all odds to achieve what no human had done before.
