After the actress Yulia Peresild was launched into space (the film “The Challenge” was partially filmed there – Ed.), we all literally felt much closer to the stars. However, in the current global agenda, space forces are busy with more global things and are doing everything in their field to ensure that our skies are peaceful. To support the morale of space heroes, artists regularly participate in the “Scarlet Sails” International Children’s Film Festival named after them. Vasily Lanovoy in Artek came with a concert at the Plesetsk cosmodrome.
Big Change star Natalya Gvozdikova also flew in to support the space troops.

The president of the Scarlet Sails film festival, actor Andrey Sokolov, said that in his early education he was a process engineer for aircraft production and had a diploma from the Moscow Institute of Aviation Technology.
– At one time there was an international program “Soyuz – Apollo”, and our department made a shell for “Soyuz”. And now I see how everything is reborn. While our boys are on the front lines with weapons in hand, it seems to me that the word looms large. Therefore, we chose patriotic songs for the concert in order to maintain the morale of the officers. Therefore, to prove that we are like-minded people, we breathe the same air, actor Andrey Sokolov shared with KP.RU. – Now we are in the “Officers House”, this building was built in 1967. This is the time of my childhood. With nostalgia I remember those times, I remember the books in which I grew up.
Now young people are growing up on the Internet, and there, unfortunately, there is a huge amount of information that is not ordered in any way. Now it is important to pay attention to our children, because those who are now 10 years old will be 20 in ten years. Time will pass quickly, it is important that children grow up with good books.

– Does your daughter read books?
– Is reading. But sometimes he is lazy, like all children. Everyone is on the Internet. This is the problem.
“Don’t you throw your children’s books at him?”
– I read the book “Fidget, crumbs and not like that” probably 50 times, but in general, children now have other priorities. They read other things, unfortunately. Time dictates its own laws, there is no way out of this, Sokolov complained.
Before the concert for military personnel and their families, the artists visited the Plesetsk Cosmodrome, where they saw Angara and Soyuz launch vehicles being launched into space. One of them is an exact copy of the one from which the first cosmonaut Yuri Gagarin flew into space.
And then there was a concert in the “House of Officers”, which was held by the legend of television Tatyana Sudets.
After the performance, the artist Nikolai Denisov shared that as a child he could not even dream of visiting the cosmodrome. Denisov recalled how, as a child, he met Gagarin after his historic flight.
– The most important thing is to understand why we came to the spaceport. This is not our first patriotic concert. Previously, we performed in hospitals, military schools, in the Crimea and other cities, – said actor Nikolai Denisov.
After the concert, the head of the cosmodrome, Colonel Nikolai Andreevich Bashlyaev, thanked the artists. He noted that space starts from the ground, it all starts here, at the cosmodrome, that the country’s success is created, among other things, by the hands of those people who sit in the hall and watch, all this is one family. from the cosmodrome, which consists of a huge number of specialists, people with one, two, three higher educations, who, by the will of fate, ended up in the Arkhangelsk region and faithfully served the Motherland.
And the general director of the festival and ideological inspirer of the concert, Irina Gromova, welcoming the audience, noted that if Vasily Semyonovich Lanovoy were alive, he, like a true patriot, would surely be on this stage.
– By the way, the film “Officers” with Vasily Lanov is my favorite, – admitted the head of the cosmodrome Nikolai Bashlyaev – I have seen many films in my life, but this picture is the most memorable.
