Plot
On August 24, 1981, the newlyweds Larisa and Vladimir Savitsky stepped on board the plane following the flight Komsomolsk-on-Amur - Blagoveshchensk, the Soviet Union. 30 minutes before landing, the AN-24 civilian aircraft collided with a Soviet Air Force bomber and fell to pieces at an altitude of more than 5 kilometers above the ground. No one was supposed to survive … but a miracle happened. Larisa Savitskaya woke up in the middle of the wreckage of the plane in the impenetrable taiga.

The film is a story about a young married couple flying on a plane that crashed as a result of a collision with a bomber half an hour before landing. Everyone was supposed to die, but Larisa managed to survive. It was filmed in the summer of 2020 in the Perm Krai. Larisa Savitskaya herself was present on the set as a consultant. The script of the film was also written jointly with Larisa based on her stories.[5]
The idea to make this film came from producer Anton Belov after he watched a TV program about plane crash survivors.
