In his most recent work, Christian Frei turns to an age-old dream of man: to leave our planet as a „normal person" and travel into outer space. For 20 million dollars, the American Anousheh Ansari was able to fulfil this childhood dream. This documentary follows her journey into space and shows everyday life as it is on the International Space Station. This terrific beauty is set in contrast to the crazy trips taken by Kazakh rocket debris collectors in their hunt for the coveted carrot-shaped rocket stages, which literally fall out of the sky and are collected by men with trucks the size of dinosaurs. With breathtaking images, SPACE TOURISTS takes its audience into a fascinating world full of of wonder and surprise. Encounters with the least likely people imaginable. Places even stranger and more unknown than outer space itself.

I am very familiar with Baikonur, Star City and most of the people, who appeared in this movie. I saw a lot of documentaries about the russian way to space, but this movie is now one of my favourite! Thanks a lot, Christian, to make this movie! Great and excellent work!

The shot of the ship taking off is so surreal looking. I really hope this is released on DVD somewhere I can get it!
