Baikonur. Earth (2018) - full transcript
Over the centuries only few caravans dared to cross the northern route of the silk road that today lies in the territory of Kazakhstan. In this portion of Asian desert there was no place to rise a majestic city nor anything else worth fighting for. Until in 1955 the Soviet government realised that those lands, for how much far could they be from the rest of the World, were just one step away from the Universe.

an EPS foam manufacturing plant.
While ten years ago,
it was making 300 cubic metres of foam,
now its output rose to 1,500.
The management
also cares for workers' education.
Alexander Аbritsov
joined as a simple worker,
now he is a product engineer.
They have created favourable conditions
with a view to giving us
opportunities to study.
The aim is to send us
to other factories for further training.
We can get not only knowledge…
But a huge experience, too.
The factory supplies goods
not only to Kazakhstan,
but the entire Central Asian market.

This whole land was once under the sea.
[BIRDS CONTINUE CHIRPING]
The Aral Sea used to be one
of the four biggest lakes in the world.
In the 60s the water of two rivers
that feed into the Aral Sea
was used
for the irrigation of cotton fields.
So, starting from the mid-70s,
the Aral Sea started to shrink
and at the beginning of the 90s
it was divided into two parts.
The North Aral Sea,
which is on the Kazakh side,
and the South Aral Sea.
The shoreline started to shrink
and for example before 2005,
before building the Kokaral dam,
we used to drive about 60 km
to get to the nearest point of the water.
And nowadays, after building the dam,
the North Aral Sea has started to revive
and the nearest point
is about 25 km from town.
Now with the dam,
we have more than 50 types of freshwater
fish species in the Aral Sea.
So the life is back.

Tried to push away the fog, but failed.
The dead moon
Is poorly illuminating our path.
Stars are putting pressure on our chests.
And the air is poisonous like mercury.
No way to turn off the road
No way to make a step.
And we cannot go through this fog.
So where can we make a step?
God will show us the way.
God is always for us
Like an incorporeal leader.
It is giving us chills.
It has suddenly started raining.
This tangible heavy rainfall
Will finish us off

Here you can use your hands.
