Out of the Present is a documentary film by Andrei Ujica from 1995 that deals with the prolonged stay of the Russian cosmonaut Sergei Krikalev at the space station Mir. This was the first time a 35 mm film camera was used in space.

Synopsis

The film begins with the docking of Soyuz TM-12 at the station. For 92 minutes (the time for one earth-orbit of the station) the routine of a long-term space station crew is shown, frequently interrupted by panoramic views of the earth. In addition to observing the routine day-to-day activities of eating, exercising, and conducting experiments in weightlessness, Krikalev is a bystander to the 1991 Soviet coup d'état attempt and the collapse of the Soviet Union during his 10-month stay. The arrival of Soyuz TM-13 is a highlight, with the station being crowded with five cosmonauts for a week. Due to the then-current political situation in Kazakhstan, a Kazhak cosmonaut, Toktar Aubakirov, was selected for this mission. Without long-term training he was unable to relieve Krikalev, who therefore had to stay another six months at the station. Finally, Krikalev is shown back on earth, resting on a couch after more than 300 days in zero gravity.

Pendant l'été 2000 en Espagne, Fulton et Pepe suivent, pour en réaliser le making of, le tournage de ce qui aurait dû être The Man Who Killed Don Quixote, un film que projette de réaliser Terry Gilliam depuis plusieurs années. Jean Rochefort doit tenir le rôle de Don Quichotte. Johnny Depp et Vanessa Paradis font également partie de la distribution. Cependant, le tournage tourne vite à la catastrophe : problèmes d'organisation, conflits personnels, vols intempestifs de F16 de l'armée de l'air américaine basée en Espagne sur le site de tournage, pluie diluvienne dans un lieu désertique qui dégrade le matériel et altère le décor – le désert servant de lieu de tournage devenant verdoyant le lendemain du déluge –, maladie de Jean Rochefort qui empêchera celui-ci de jamais remonter à cheval et l'écarte des plateaux.
