The space launch is a huge event for the whole world.

Today there are dozens of TV cameras, relatives, friends and even tourists who come specially to watch an unforgettable event...

Valentina Tereshkova 55 years ago was deprived of such attention.

Her grandiose flight took place in complete secrecy, even her family did not know about it.

Valentina Tereshkova returned to Earth three days later as a hero.

The film is dedicated to a woman with a surprisingly firm, strong-willed character, determination, optimism, love for her native land.

A woman who has accomplished a feat that has no equal so far, since Valentina Tereshkova remains the only female cosmonaut who has made a single space flight.

Cosmonauts Valentina Tereshkova, Alexey Leonov, Irina Solovyova, Anna Kikina starred in the film.
