On April 12, 1961 a football disappeared mysteriously in the sky during a friendly match between two Bulgarian (?) amateur football teams. Exactly one year later a Kazachstan goat farmer returned the ball to the football club with the amazing story on how the ball saved his and his goats lives in the Kazachstan steppe.
In this dry humorous comedy short we are flashing back in time and try to unravel the miracle that happened 57 years ago.
This has to be the 5th film I make in dedication to the first man in Space Yuri Gagarin. The last film: ‘Ringo Rocket Star and his song for Yuri Gagarin’ was shown on nearly 100 shortfilmfestivals around the world and won lots a awards.
I grew up in petshop of my father, worked as a teenager in a steel factory. I became a autodidact director and space nerd.
