Dir. of Phot.: Alexander Riedel, Script/Dir./Edit.: Bettina Timm, Compos.: Daniel Kluge, Edouard Stork, Sound: Philip Vogt
Cast: The crew of the Aragats Space Station
Mount Aragats is the highest mountain in Armenia. At an altitude of 3500 m one can find the remnants of an ambitious Soviet project: the weather-worn buildings of Aragats Cosmic Ray Division. Here, more than a hundred men search for messengers from distant galaxies – particles created by cosmic radiation on its way to the Earth in billions of tiny explosions. Most of the researchers left, when the financial support of the institution collapsed with the Soviet Union. However, despite the lack of funding, a small group of Armenian scientists endures on the top of Mount Aragats. Like astronauts in a spaceship they continue their research, hoping for a breakthrough discovery – that of unknown galaxies.
