The film stars 35-year-old Russian actress Yulia Peresild and is directed by Klim Klim Shipenko. The film tells the story of a sick astronaut who is unable to return to Earth for medical treatment, and a surgeon is urgently sent to space to operate on the astronaut.

On October 17, 2021, the Soyuz MS-18 spacecraft carrying the space film Challenge crew successfully returned to Earth and landed at the landing site in Kazakhstan.
