MUŽ V SKAFANDRI

Sci-fi video opera loosely inspired by the Czechoslovakian stories of the American astronaut of Czechoslovak origin Eugene Cernan (1934-2017). He is still the last man to have been to the moon, in 1972 as a member of the Apollo 17 space expedition. He also had a Czechoslovak flag with him, which he then donated to the Astronomical Institute of the Czech Academy of Sciences in 1974 on his unofficial and secret visit to Czechoslovakia.
