Sanding Dreams

Pasha is a nineteen-year-old student in St. Petersburg who dreams of building space rockets. After receiving news of his father's death, he leaves his studies to support his mother and younger brother in their village of Shoyna. Although he is awarded an international grant, his family's situation worsens when a rocket from a nearby cosmodrome crashes into their home and injures his mother. To ensure her recovery and safety, Pasha attempts to move the family residence to higher ground away from the shifting sands to a place where the sea is visible.
