The 38-year-old US-educated film director said cinema was ready to conquer space. "We've shot everything we planned," Shipenko said from the Yuri Gagarin Cosmonaut Training Center outside Moscow where he and Peresild, 37, have been adapting to life back on Earth and learning to walk again. They shot more than 30 hours worth of footage which will later be edited down to around 30 minutes. It centres around a surgeon who is dispatched to the ISS to save a cosmonaut.Ī beaming Shipenko told reporters that the task was a "huge challenge" and they had to constantly adapt to film scenes. The plot of "The Challenge" has been mostly kept under wraps along with the budget.
