Voskhod - A Short Film about Ham Radio

DUST is a YouTube channel that has science fiction short films content.

At the beginning of April, DUST presented a short film, whose theme addresses amateur radio, entitled Voskhod (Sunrise).

Voskhod is about a recluse radio operator who, after repairing his amateur radio with parts found in the forest, receives a distress call from a stranded Soviet cosmonaut in orbit.

Voskhod is a mixture of the American film Frequency and the Cuban film Sergio & Sergei.

While Voskhod takes place in November 1966, Frequency is about a father in 1969 talking to his son in 1999 and Sergio & Sergei is about a Cuban philosophy professor and a Soviet cosmonaut at MIR Space Station and it takes place at the end of 1991 when of the Dissolution of the Soviet Union.
