Amateurs in Space

Over a period of six years, award-winning director Max Kestner follows two best friends and top engineers building a DIY rocket to travel into space – and he becomes their friend, partner, and partner-in-crime... Against all odds, they build the cheapest rocket for the cost of a small car. This is the story of one of the greatest dreams of mankind, which proves that rather than the DIY techniques, it’s the power of will that can bring the common people closer to the stars.
